Just loved this contemporary romance set in the fascinating world of EDM concerts. I learned fun things about people doing super cool jobs, it’s smoothly and delightfully written with compelling characters who linger in my mind, and the romance is sinfully delicious. Highly recommend!

The music industry is ever changing. One minute, you’re the hottest star with music that is redefining culture and then the next you’re entirely forgotten and wiped from everyone’s memories.
Leona Sable has come to learn that once you step out of the spotlight, you’re forgotten from everyone’s mind. She had built a name for herself in the music industry showcasing that she could handle any type of person, manage the hell out of them and make them a star. Additionally, Leona just happens to know how to pull off a kick-ass tour. Despite her range of talents however, one bad piece of press destroyed all her hard work. With a year-long sabbatical under her belt, Leona returns ready to take on the next hit DJ, Luke Anderson.
With his entire reputation and career in jeopardy and coming off a recent betrayal of trust, Luke Anderson is wary of hiring someone new. Especially when that person is linked to the very figure that caused catastrophic issues for his career. Despite his fears, he knows that Leona is the only person who can help him achieve the dreams he wants. Luke keeps a close hold on her and at the same time brings himself deeper and deeper into Leona’s life. Two strong headed, fiery artists go head to head with each other. Both passionate about what music means to them, Luke and Leona find that they fit into each other’s lives in a practically perfect way. With drama, pressure, and paparazzi, can they find a way to meld their two very different lives?
This book lit a spark from the beginning and it just kept raging as it went on. Both Luke and Leona are fiery characters but in different ways. Leona is a straight shooter, determined go-getter that will literally tackle any challenge and do it with a smile while Luke is a passion-fueled artist that is always attempting to better himself. They both have this drive to live up to their potential and use it to better themselves. I loved how electric they were from the start. Even though they came off as hating each other, the connection and interest was there from the beginning. I just sat back and waited for the sparks to fly and enjoyed the burn that came along with it.
In Tune by J.N. Welsh is more than just your typical romance novel. The author touched on some real issues that people face when chasing their dreams and the sacrifices they must make to see it to fruition. The raw passion and emotion that is expressed in this book will touch you in a way that will leave you looking at music differently.
The tension between Luke and Leona is strong from the beginning but their romantic relationship evolves with perfect timing. Enough to make you want to continue turning the page. I really enjoyed this book and I look forward to reading more from JN Welsh.
