You’d Be Mine by Erin Hahn

Oh wow!!!! This book was way more than I expected. And it was so much more than I could have hoped for. I was feeling this giddiness, happiness, and an all around enchantment I haven’t felt in a long time.

Annie Mathers is America’s sweetheart and heir to a country music legacy full of all the things her Gran warned her about. Superstar Clay Coolidge is most definitely going to end up one of those things. 

But unfortunately for Clay, if he can’t convince Annie to join his summer tour, his music label is going to drop him. That’s what happens when your bad boy image turns into bad boy reality. Annie has been avoiding the spotlight after her parents’ tragic death, except on her skyrocketing YouTube channel. Clay’s label wants to land Annie, and Clay has to make it happen. 

Swayed by Clay’s undeniable charm and good looks, Annie and her band agree to join the tour. From the start fans want them to be more than just tour mates, and Annie and Clay can’t help but wonder if the fans are right. But if there’s one part of fame Annie wants nothing to do with, it’s a high-profile relationship. She had a front row seat to her parents’ volatile marriage and isn’t interested in repeating history. If only she could convince her heart that Clay, with his painful past and head over heels inducing tenor, isn’t worth the risk.

MY THOUGHTS

2018 has been a year of wonderful debut novels. I found so many new authors to keep an eye on, and I’m thrilled that Erin Hahn is one of them.

The rockstar genre has been a favorite genre of mine, and I think a young adult novel about two country singers fits nicely into this category.

Besides its being a wonderful young adult novel, with an highly emotional plot and fantastic characters, there was a certain amount of raw emotions that shone through it. It gave this book an emotional punch that was unexpected.

You’d Be Mine truly had everything a music centered novel should have.

Swagger, swoon, an overabundance of feelings, lots of music, a little bit of star crossed lovers, and a love story that without a doubt spoke to me.

I loved the entire cast. They were sweet, charming, relatable, and so very likable. They cared for each other, supported and teased one another, and just had an amazing time together. Of course such a book doesn’t come without a good amount of emotional turmoil, but I was wonderfully pleased by the way the author decided to go about it. It was a truly amazing debut novel.

But the writing was what really won me over. I absolutely LOVED this author’s voice. Smart, witty, charming – it all worked for me. Nowadays it’s really all about the writing for me. Plot alone won’t win me over if the writing doesn’t grip me. Reading You’d Be Mine was a true pleasure. From the very first page on, I was HOOKED!!

If you love young adult love stories that make you swoon, laugh and FEEL – this novel is a MUST READ!!! I’m truly in love with this story, and can’t wait to read her next book, I already put it on my GR tbr. 2019 can’t come soon enough.
