When a single dad meets the former rock-star crush of his youth,
everything they thought they knew about happiness and love is thrown
into chaos in this hopeful, heartwarming romantic comedy.
"Bound to charm readers from page one . . . You'll root for everyone
in this sweet love story."--Elissa Sussman, bestselling author of Funny
You Should Ask
Billy Perkins is happy. And why wouldn't he be? He loves his job as an
independent music teacher and his apartment in Baltimore above a record
shop called Charm City Rocks. Most of all, he loves his brainy teenage
son, Caleb.
Margot Hammer, on the other hand, is far from happy. The former drummer
of the once-famous band Burnt Flowers, she's now a rock-and-roll recluse
living alone in New York City. When a new music documentary puts Margot
back in the spotlight, she realizes how much she misses her old band and
the music that gave her life meaning.
Billy has always had a crush on Margot. But she's a legitimate rock
star--or, at least, she was--so he never thought he'd meet her. Until
Caleb, worried that his easygoing dad might actually be lonely, cooks up
a scheme to get Margot to perform at Charm City Rocks.
It's the longest of long shots, but Margot's label has made it clear
that any publicity is an opportunity she can't afford to miss. When
their paths collide, Billy realizes that he maybe wasn't as happy as he
thought--and Margot learns that sometimes the sweetest music is a duet.
