the beginning and what a start it is.

the first time I read this story I knew I was a fan of Eriks. I was so excited when I realized this book was only the beginning of the journey through a world I've grown so fond of. its a compelling and tender story of so much strength and love and how those things weave together to form a beautiful relationship and wonderful people. I was glad to see an audible version of the book and although I may have a first found the narration a little difficult to get into I was pleasantly surprised and found that the narration made this a more enjoyable book.

The book that started the phenomenon .

In the beginning there was Mandy and Ana, we could have never guessed what the wonderful world of MUSIC OF THE SOUL could truly turn out to be. For some people it is a good escape, for some fans its a nice place to visit but for others it is a home away from home.
THANK YOU MR. SCHUBACH

A Nice Twist That Partially Delivers

Mandy Harris; rock 'n' roll's bad girl comes home with a big secret and a determination to live a different life. Instantly she meets the girl of her dreams; sickeningly sweet platitudes ensue. then of course the relationship is ripped asunder by that familiar combination of misunderstanding and miscommunication and as Mandy heaps abuse on herself she goes back to the bottle; then back on tour, but she has been changed.
The scenes from the road are well written and ring true. While still portraying Mandy's growth there is no devolving into the cliches that encumber Mandy's inner thoughts and her dialogue concerning Bella. Her ability to have extended contact with both the masses and the press while avoiding learning anything about what's going on in the town or the girl she left behind strains credulity. Seriously how hard would it have been for just one person to say "Mandy the stories they're talking about; they aren't what you think. However this does set up the one of the classic cliches of lesbian romance where once again it devolves into smarmy saccharine inner dialogue.
For all this I found myself loving the people in this story, the couple and the warm feelings engendered by the author for the characters and the book. This was an excellent listen and I won't hesitate to purchase the next book in the series.
