Despite all of the reasons to stay away, every song pulls us closer to each other. What will we do when we're not bandmates anymore?

Asher
From the second Lucas Carlson shows up in my garage for band practice, I'm drawn in by his eyes, his awkward rambling, and his incredible musical talents. But we share a best friend, and he's only our temporary drummer while he's in Chicago for a summer internship. It should be easy to ignore the way he brings something out in me that no one has before.

Lucas
Asher Bernthal is a grumpy stockbroker whose band, Signal Fire, is vital to my best friend's happiness. I don't want to mess it up for her, so all I have to do is drum and keep my head down while I'm the temporary drummer. It should be easy not to crush on a man so out of my grasp, who writes lyrics that pierce straight through me.

This is an angsty, age gap, second chance MM romance featuring musicians with day jobs. It is the first book in the Local Beats series, which can all be read as standalones, and has a guaranteed HEA.
