Strings of the Heart

Publisher Marketing: Twenty year old, Allison Slater has been in love with her brother's bandmate, Rhys McGowan, since she was thirteen years old. But to him, she'll always be Jake's little sister and off limits. Now a college sophomore and licking her wounds from a bad breakup, she sets her sights on making Rhys see her as someone he could date...maybe even love. Her opportunity comes when Rhys visits his parents in Savannah where she is attending college. But the night she's dreamed of turns to heart-break, and she realizes she'll never be the one for Rhys. For Rhys McGowan, his nightmare began when he woke up, naked and hung-over, next to his bandmate's little sister. Unable to remember a thing from the previous night, he only makes matters worse by lying to Allison about not being interested in her. The truth is he's spent the last year to ignore his body's reaction whenever Allison is around. His resolve is tested when Allison comes on tour with Runaway Train, as both Jake and Abby's nanny and to fulfill her fashion design internship. The more time he spends with her in the close quarters of the bus, the harder it is for him to resist. Will Rhys realize that having a relationship with Allison is worth fighting for even if it means that he has to fight his best friend for a chance?
