Leah's Song

Mountain Creek Drive Series, Book 2

De: Daphne James Huff

Narrado por: Kaye Anderson

Would you give up your perfect guy to keep your best friend happy?

Between her soccer superstar big sister and musical prodigy best friend, Leah Cooper has never been in the spotlight. And she's fine with that.

So why would she ever try out for choir? Oh right, the incredibly hot new neighbor Josh, who she might like more than she secretly loves boy bands.

The only problem is, her best friend Lilly likes him, too. They promise each other they'll both stay away, but Josh doesn't seem to want to stay away from Leah...

A throwback to the early 2000’s, Mountain Creek Drive is a new contemporary YA romance series that will have you longing for the days when Britney loved Justin and you had to share cell phone minutes with your siblings. Back when Friday nights were made for football games and sleepovers with the friends you’d do anything for.

The full high school teen romance series is available now:

• Book 1: Stage Kiss by M.F. Lorson
• Book 2: Leah's Song by Daphne James Huff
• Book 3: Chasing Love by Kayla Tirrell

Soooo Cute!

Leah Cooper is pretty happy with her life, she's a junior in high school with a talented best friend and a soccer star older sister. As a middle child, she's a bit lost in the shuffle at home. When dreamy Josh moves in next door, Leah and her best friend Lilly both fall for him, hard. To save their friendship, Leah promises Lilly that she'll stay away from Josh. That promise is tested when Leah and Josh both join choir and Josh starts to pay more attention to Leah. Leah needs to decide if her friendship with Lilly is more important than dating the hottest and sweetest guy ever.

This is the second book in the Mountain Creek Drive series, but each book is a standalone read. It's a clean YA read I'd recommend for young teens on up. The setting was just so much fun, I loved the 90s references to things I haven't remembered in years, like the warped tour and Chicken Soup for the Soul. Leah was a heroine you want to root for, she's a peacemaker who put everyone before herself. I really wanted to shake her friend and siblings and smack her parents for not appreciating her. Josh is dreamy, as a YA lead should be, and their conversations and interactions were really cute. I'd definitely recommend this one!

The narration was great, Kaye Anderson had the perfect voice for the story and really brought a lot to it. I requested a copy of the audiobook, and I'm voluntarily leaving a review.

Sweet and endearing

This is a sweet teen romance with endearing characters and all the angst that a good teen novel requires. It almost reads like excerpts from a young girl's diary. I love that the characters behave like true teenagers. There are sibling rivalries, best friends falling for the same cute guy, competitions (athletic, choral, and romantic), and babysitting.

I love that the two main characters are just a wee bit outside of the norm, with their clothing styles and the music/tv shows they like. Even as a senior reader, I was completely drawn into the drama of the story. Very well done. I hope to read the others in this series.

I listened to the audio version, and narrator, Kaye Anderson, did a wonderful job. I especially liked her portrayal of Josh, the main male character.

Leah's Song
Mountain Creek Drive Series, Book 2

By: Daphne James Huff
Narrated by: Kaye Anderson

Leah’s Song is the story of a sweet and shy young lady that finds her voice. As the middle child, she is the younger sibling of the family’s sport star, who seems to soak up attention like a sponge; which makes it easy for Leah to blend into the background. This is fine with Leah, she is happy to spend her free time building babysitting career she and her best friend Lilly started years ago. Until they get a new neighbor, who becomes the one and only thing to ever threaten their relationship.

Leah’s Song is a great story for all ages and you can feel comfortable letting your preteen read this book. I am definitely a little older than a preteen but I still enjoyed it, as did my young teen daughter. I appreciate any books we can listen to together in the car. I listened to the audio version and felt the narrator did an excellent job. All around, I rate Leah’s Song with 4 stars.

Throwback to High School Days

I enjoyed this YA romance. It’s a love triangle of sorts, two best friends that live on the same street and the new boy that moves to their same street. It’s like a realistic throwback to your high school days 😂 Who is going to get the boy?
Narration was perfect!
