Controlled Chaos

Love & Lyrics, Book 1

Camden

I’ve been in love with my best friend since high school.
My biggest regret? Walking away without telling her.
I planned to. But then catastrophe struck, making us part ways without a word.
She left for Boston with her fiancé, while I left for L.A. with my band—Raging Chaos.
For the next five years, I lived and breathed music, trying to forget the beautiful girl who shattered my heart without even knowing it.
Until I see her again….
I walked away once, and I've learned my lesson.
Layla is my forever, not another item in my pile of regrets.
And she's about to find that out.

Layla

The moment I saw Camden on stage, something inside me came to life.
His tragic song of unrequited love was a confession that had me questioning everything.
Five years might’ve changed who we are—he’s a rock star and I’m a single mom—but my feelings for him are as strong as ever.
His lyrics make falling in love seem easy. For him—maybe it is.
Only I’ve learned the hard way that real life isn’t as simple as writing a love song.

Author's Note: Like real life, the characters are far from perfect, make morally gray decisions, and deal with subjects that may be sensitive for some listeners. If you are looking for a safe romance, this series is not for you. Trigger warnings (which contain spoilers) can be found on my website.

Give m my own Camden

This story starts out so so good, but I didn’t like the ending quite as well. Still a great story with a couple worth rooting for. Camden is an amazing guy. Any girl with a boyfriend or husband like him would be so lucky.

Awesome!!!!

Camden and Layla were always meant to be together. They are both incredibly strong and sweet and deserve to be together. I'm glad they got together in the end.

Trigger ahead…

I loved most of this story. This one had triggered subject like rape. If you can stomach this, you will be able to enjoy the story. That said, I loved the premise of friends to lover. This author did a good job creating the H and h. I really l

Good start

This is a good start to the series and if you've read/listened to A Chance Encounter than this is Easton and Sofia's Sons story so that was a nice surprise. I do wish there was a little more interaction with the band mates/Friends and family but overall it's a good story with some 2nc chance vibes. I did listen to the 2nd one before this so they can be done as a stand alone but I think in order and as a series would be best, Narration is done well.

Controlled Chaos

This is the first book in the Love & Lyrics series. This is a spin-off series from A Chance Encounter book. Camden and Layla met when she moved next door in high school. Camden was in love with her that first day. While Layla had no clue. She ended up getting married and having a baby in college. Camden and Layla finally reconnected after five years of not talking to each other. They came back together as if they never had been apart, plus more. The last part of the book definitely had me on the edge of my seat. I can’t wait for the next book. Marina Barrett and Walker Williams did a fantastic job narrating this book.
