Hush Note is a three book rock star romance series written by three authors: Sarina Bowen, Devney Perry and Rebecca Yarros. Lies & Lullabies is the first book in the series, a sweet emotional second chance romance.
I'm not a fan of the surprise pregnancy trope but I couldn't resist reading Lies & Lullabies. A second chance rock star romance written by Sarina Bowen? Hell yeah!
I loved the setting, the writing and the characters in this story. Jonas had his reasons to skip crucial details like his real name and the fact that he was a rockstar, when he was spending a summer away from all the madness. He definitely wasn't expecting to meet Kira. Kira was going through a rough time when she met Jonas, their friendship came easy until their first and last perfect night together. 5 years later, Jonas decides to go back to Maine and seeing Kira is an unexpected surprise.
Kira and Jonas reconnected fast. It didn't seem too fast because their bond and their chemistry were pretty amazing. The intensity of their feelings made sense and felt real. I absolutely loved the side characters: Vivi was the sweetest little girl; Adam, Kira's brother, was definitely my favorite side character; I loved Ethan and Nixon was definitely a very intriguing character (so excited about reading his story...!). I wish Adam would get his own book! That would be awesome but unfortunately it doesn't seem likely.
There were a few things that frustrated me in the story. I didn't get Kira's reasons to keep Vivi a secret. She could have tried to reach him and tell him, it bothered me that she didn't even try. Kira's ex has a small role that didn't made much sense, that story-line wasn't wrapped up at all. Also, we get a bit of Adam's fling with Ethan and it was left unresolved too, I wanted so much more of both of them!
Overall, Lies & Lullabies was a solid sweet entertaining second chance romance. I'm really excited about the next book, the tension and the chemistry between Graham and Quinn just in a few paragraphs: OFF THE CHARTS!
