About this audiobook

From the New York Times bestselling author of the Reese's Book Club Pick The Other Woman and The Guilt Trip comes an electrifying next novel.

California, 2011: Nicole Forbes lives a quiet life in the small seaside town of Coronado with her husband and daughter. She is not expecting a writer to knock on her door asking for her personal insight into the downfall of the biggest British band of the 1980s—unveiling the threads of a life she left behind years ago. The same day, her daughter goes missing and the school claims her aunt picked her up . . . but she doesn’t have an aunt. Convinced of a link between the two, Nicole is forced to revisit long-abandoned memories from her past to protect everything she now holds dear.

London, 1986: Sixteen-year-old Cassie is obsessed with Secret Oktober, the hottest band of the moment. Harboring an intense crush on the leading man, Ben Edwards, she will do anything she can to capture his attention among the throngs of groupies at the band’s scandalous backstage parties. But when Ben discovers her older sister Nicole singing at a local bar one night, he can’t help but feel drawn to her, setting in motion a collision course that could tear their family apart.

Infused with the sounds of the 80s, this thrilling novel from the inimitable Sandie Jones explores the chaos that the frenzy of fandom can provoke.

A Macmillan Audio production from Minotaur Books.

2.5 stars - The way I just threw my earbud in rage across the room. No. That is not the ending we get after going through all the twists and time jumps. I'm so livid right now! The story was well written and the dual timeline drew you in to find out what happens, but I need answers and closure in order to sleep at night.

3.5 stars. I listened to the audio version of this book narrated by Imogene Wilde. The narration was good. I'm not sure what to say about this book. Listening to it, I think I got confused as to which girl the chapters were about. I feel like I missed something. The story centered around a family. There was the mother and father and two girls. The youngest girl is totally obsessed with a band and thinks that she and one of the band members are meant to be together. Her older sister enters the picture and things go sideways. I think this would have been a better book if there had been less time spent on the early part of the story and more spent on the latter part of it. That's where all the action was. As you would expect with a rock band in the center stage of the book, the book contains drugs, casual sex and even rape and murder. If those things bother you, skip this one. Thanks to Macmillan Audio and NetGalley for the audiobook. All thoughts are my own.
