Midlife Melody
About
A single mom. A reformed rock legend. A love too powerful to ignore.
Holly Leftwich, a single mother who’s spent her life surviving instead of thriving, has never been lucky in love. After years of sacrifice and hard work, she's a homeowner in Cincinnati, Ohio, a city she chose specifically for her vibrant daughter, Ainsley, a gifted guitarist who has landed a recording deal.
Spencer Everlong had it all: women, money and fame. After decades in the spotlight, determined to leave the chaos behind, the notorious frontman traded it all for the quiet life as a music producer. Spencer was the embodiment of every rock star stereotype imaginable and has worked tirelessly to re-invent himself. Too bad he’s painfully lonely.
Holly and Spencer’s attraction is instant, their connection undeniable, but their budding romance is threatened by the ghosts of Spencer's past and the lingering consequences of his former life. Will their love be strong enough to overcome the past? Will Holly decide redemption is enough to rebuild trust?
Steamy, heartfelt, and filled with hard-won hope, Midlife Melody is a mature contemporary romance about second chances, taking risks, and falling in love when you least expect it.

Praise for this book
Once I started reading, I was hooked. I quickly became caught up in the lives of Holly and Spencer, who, like me, are both middle-aged, somewhat set in their ways, and carry their fair share of baggage. The realities of dating later in life and dealing with old mistakes felt believable and relatable. The book didn’t gloss over these struggles and still came across as hopeful while painting the picture of a real connection. The alternating points of view brought both main characters vividly to life. I recommend this book to anyone wanting a romance with mature themes, believable messiness, and a touch of rock-and-roll.
