Sydney Blake's twenty-second birthday cannot get any worse.
When she learns that her long-time boyfriend, Hunter and her
roommate, Tori have been cheating on her together, Sydney
takes her belongings and leaves. Except she has no place to
go.
Ridge Lawson is her neighbour, and although they haven't
spoken yet, they do share a unique bond. Everyday when Ridge
plays his guitar out on his balcony, Sydney cannot help but
be magnetized to his tunes. As a music fanatic and aspiring
musician herself, she is drawn to him, but until now, she
never had to chance to tell him how beautiful his music is.
Ridge is one half of a band, and as the songwriter and music
extraordinaire, a lot of the band's pressure sits on his
shoulders. He is unable to be inspired by anything
lately, but he unexpectedly finds his muse in Sydney. This
begins a complicated romance that will have readers pining
for a happily-ever-after.
Colleen Hoover infuses MAYBE SOMEDAY with her trademark
charm and a good boy hero. Ridge has a secret that is
revealed fairly early on in the story, but it will
ultimately change the way you see him. I am still not fully
sold on this, because it makes believing him as a musician a
little more difficult. However, Hoover works on that
authenticity for the whole book and achieves a good result.
The book begins with Sydney punching her roommate in the
face for her betrayal, and as you can expect, much of this
book involves cheating. However, it isn't all physical. I
find that the emotional cheating was a little more hard to
deal with and prevented me from really investing in Ridge
and Sydney's romance. Yet, Hoover wields her magic and
somehow makes it work.
Though different from Hoover's usual style, MAYBE SOMEDAY is
a refreshing take on the forbidden romance.
At twenty-two years old, Sydney is enjoying a great life:
She's in college, working a steady job, in love with her
wonderful boyfriend, Hunter, and rooming with her best
friend, Tori. But everything changes when she discovers that
Hunter is cheating on her--and she's forced to decide what
her next move should be.
Soon, Sydney finds herself captivated by her mysterious and
attractive neighbor, Ridge. She can't take her eyes off him
or stop listening to the passionate way he plays his guitar
every evening out on his balcony. And there's something
about Sydney that Ridge can't ignore, either. They soon find
themselves needing each other in more ways than one.
A passionate tale of friendship, betrayal, and romance,
Maybe Someday will immerse readers in Sydney's tumultuous
world from the very first page.
Includes an original soundtrack created by musician Griffin
Peterson.
