About ABANDON:
It’s not every day you're slapped on stage by two different women you've been dating for the last year.
I know what you're thinking. What sort of ballsy woman gets on stage and slaps a rockstar? Does nobody have self-control anymore? It may have been the talk of the Grammy's.
Oh, yeah, forgot to mention that. I, Ty Cuban, was taken down by two psychotic women in front of the entire world. Lucky for us the audience thought it was part of the breakup song my band and I had just finished performing. I was thirty-three, hardly ready to settle down.
Except now it's getting forced on me. Seaside, Oregon. My band mates were more than happy to settle down, dig their roots into the sand, and start popping out kids. Meanwhile I was still enjoying life.
Until now. Until my forced hiatus teaching freaking guitar lessons at the local studio for the next two months. Part of my punishment, do something for the community while I think deep thoughts about all my life choices.
Sixty days of hell.
It doesn't help that the other volunteer is a past flame that literally looks at me as if I've sold my soul to the devil. She has the voice of an angel and looks to kill—I would know, because she looks ready to kill me every second of every day. I broke her heart when we were on tour together a decade ago.
I'm ready to put the past behind us. She's ready to run me over with her car then stand on top of it and strum her guitar with glee.
Sixty days. I can do anything for sixty days. Including making the sexy Von Abigail fall for me all over again. This time for good.
Damn, maybe there’s something in the water.

My Thoughts:
Ty Cuban tells his story to the reader. He has attitude and you can feel that coming off the page. Abigail Von Leery lets the reader in on her impressions of Ty. By having the reader feel as if they are a part of the story is a great way to turn the story into a page-turner. It keeps us engaged in what's happening.
I'm late to the game. I thought I was keeping up with what the author has in the works and I was floored when I saw how many books in this series I missed out on. What's good about this story is that I didn't feel lost. I did however want to get to know more about the men that work with Ty. Would love to know if the author has any plans to revisit the camp we get to know here. I didn't feel as if things were brought to a close with that.
If you're looking for a story with a rock star and a second chance at what he lost than you need to check this out. There's a lot of emotion here and a rock star that shows us he's a human being who's not perfect and has done some things he's not proud of. If you've never read any of Ms. Van Dyken's books before than why not check out this novella. For some of us summer is winding down, the kids are going back to school and some time has opened up to read a short book - this can fill in some of that time. If you like some heat between the main characters you'll get that here too. Then I would read this book again but I would play some music in the background. I'm left knowing I have a lot of catching up to do - looking forward to it.
