There are three things I have to protect: My heart, my scars and my life. Even from my best friend.
Some secrets have the power to change lives.
Or ruin them.
What I didn’t expect was for my best friend to walk away when I needed him most.
I made the only decision I could.
And I have no regrets–even if Lars Trouble can’t handle that.
Now I just have to convince my broken heart it’s better off without him.
***
I don’t do secrets, I hate deceivers and I’m not in love with my best friend.
Or so I thought.
As the man in the shadows, the drummer of the Darling Devils, the person I rely on most is my best friend.
That is until I discover Naomi is a liar.
If walking away from her was hard, learning she isn’t mine to love feels impossible.
And just when I think it’s all finally coming back together, fate steps in and proves me wrong.
But when you love someone, you do the only thing you can. You fight for your love story to begin.
A friends-to-lovers romance to the beat of the Darling Devils – the legends of music.

What a breath of fresh air!
I hardly come across any books with an Asian woman as the main character and a sassy one at that, so picking up this book has been a gem!
Haven't read the first book, I was a bit confused when I first started the story but the writing didn't make you feel like you missed out on a lot seeming as Trouble can be read as a standalone. We were introduced to the troubled drummer who seems to be the most put together in the band and his best friend, Naomi who is running from the demons of her own.
They formed the most unlikely friendship, but with the things that were happening, it gets harder to deny the underlying chemistry they shared. Will they thrive in the intensity or risk their relationship to go up in flames?
It was a rollercoaster ride of emotions indeed, there was so much drama going on that every page was a page-turner, I was in love with Naomi's tenacity to become her own person and the things she had to endure just made my heart breaks.
Romance, angst, and a whole lot of emotions, highly recommended to the romance junkie out there!
Can't wait for the next one!
