"A dreamy summer rom-com that'll make you believe in love again." --Bustle "Full of not only sigh-inducing swoons but the social commentary [Thorne] is talented at writing." --Paste Music was Ruby's first love, but did it ever love her back? After a nightmare audition at the music school where her famous father teaches, the answer to this question is unavoidable. And so, it seems, is Oscar Bell. Musical genius, YouTube sensation, and her dad's new protégé, Oscar is the last person Ruby needs in her life. Being around him feels dangerously like being with her first love again--except music never kissed her like this. Oscar is falling for Ruby too, but he knows how it'll look to the ultra-privileged, ultra-white world of classical music--a Black guy dating his mentor's white daughter. As the New York City summer heats up, though, so does the spark between them. Can two people still figuring themselves out figure out how to be together? And will Ruby get over her first love in time to save what she has with her second? "Delightful...Hits all the right notes." --Mackenzi Lee, author of The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue "Seriously swoony...I loved it." --Rachel Hawkins, author of Royals "Sweet and intense...[An] engrossing romance with a social conscience." --Kirkus "Utterly romantic." --Tanaz Bhathena, author of A Girl Like That "Full of heart and humor. It crackles with energy." --Kelly Loy Gilbert, author of Picture Us in the Light "Timely and romantic." --Publishers Weekly "Beautiful, heartfelt, aware, and raw." --Lauren Gibaldi, author of This Tiny Perfect World "Thoughtful, nuanced." --Booklist

Book Description :

It's not every day you find a naked rock star in your bed. But that's exactly what happens to former violin prodigy Elise Wolf, who has left her failing indie rock band for home, only to discover that her family sold their music shop to famous rocker, Tristan Morgan. Elise has hocked her family's heirloom violin, needs a job pronto, and violins are all she knows. Even though she believes all rock stars are self-centered, narcissistic a$$es, she is desperate for cash and begs Tristan for a job. Sidelined at home with a vocal cord issue and not knowing if he'll ever sing again, Tristan bought the local music shop as a backup plan. He just never imagined he'd wake up to a cat running across his baws, as his Scottish grandfather would say, or deal with the previous owner's daughter when she keeps popping up at the music shop. While Tristan finds Elise persistent and annoying, he admits he knows very little about the music shop business. He hires her to help him sell off the inventory and prove he is the antithesis of the rock star she believes he is. When she leaves her laptop open on an internet dating site, he uses an anonymous name and befriends her on the site. His plan is to set her straight on a few things and never meet face to face. Surprisingly, through their messages, he discovers they have a connection and working side by side, he feels a spark. Tristan knows he's screwed. Not only has he fallen for Elise, whether he comes clean and admits his identity, or tries to delicately end their online relationship, someone's heart will be broken. And it will probably be his. Workplace romantic comedy with a You've Got Mail vibe. High heat. No cliffhanger.It's not every day you find a naked rock star in your bed.

Book Description :

Night Music: Eight homicides in one night couldn’t have come at a worse possible time for already-overworked Detectives Frank Vandegraf, Jilly Garvey and Dan Lee of the Personal Crimes Unit. The night began with the audacious shooting of a shady and reviled investigator, and proceeded to get nonstop crazier. They can’t rely on the over-strained resources of their department, and as the cases compound and unexpected connections emerge, they’re on their own against the clock, fatigue, and mounting pressure from above. There’s only their own experience and savvy to fall back on as they navigate the treacherous urban territory they know so well. Open and Shut: The ultimate fate of a brilliant surgeon, convicted of the brutal murder of his wife, may be determined by two very different red-haired women. One is the mysterious lady in emeralds, who may be the key to proving him innocent, if only she can be located. The other is Detective Jilly Garvey, who doggedly worked to convict the surgeon but might now be his reluctant salvation. She and her partner, Detective Dan Lee, are driven to uncover the truth, following an elaborate and daunting trail of evidence through a maze of jet-set socialites, urban hipsters, shady investigators, low-life criminals...and still another murder!

Book Description :

(Limelight). A Hard Day's Night: Music on Film Series is the story of the making of the greatest rock-and-roll movie of all time. Beginning with introductions to the film's stars chronicling their rise from a raggedy teenage skiffle band to the biggest pop act in the world the book goes on to tell how the American film company United Artists wanted to make a quick, low-budget movie starring the Fab Four so its record division could put out a motion picture soundtrack album full of new Beatles songs, in order to allow the studio to cash in on the incredible wave of Beatlemania then sweeping the planet. Director Richard Lester, producer Walter Shenson, and screenwriter Alun Owen were hired to churn out just another cheap exploitation film, but instead used the opportunity to create a startlingly fresh and original movie that broke new ground both in subject matter (instead of simply following genre tradition and sticking the band in some corny made-up plot, they had the Beatles play themselves in a narrative based on their own incredible real-life experiences) and in form (Lester's inspired, surrealist approach to the film's musical numbers kicked off the entire music video revolution). Covered is the film's frantic six-week shoot, the lively recording sessions that resulted in seven great new Beatles songs, and how both the film and the album met with great critical and popular success.

Book Description :

The story of how Toronto became a music mecca. From Yonge Street to Yorkville to Queen West to College, the neighbourhoods that housed Toronto’s music scenes. Featuring Syrinx, Rough Trade, Martha and the Muffins, Fifth Column, Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet, Rheostatics, Ghetto Concept, LAL, Broken Social Scene, and more! “Jonny Dovercourt, a tireless force in Toronto’s music scene, offers the widest-ranging view out there on how an Anglo-Saxon backwater terrified of people going to bars on Sundays transforms itself into a multicultural metropolis that raises up more than its share of beloved artists, from indie to hip-hop to the unclassifiable. His unique approach is to zoom in on the rooms where it’s happened – the live venues that come and too frequently go – as well as on the people who’ve devoted their lives and labours to collective creativity in a city that sometimes seems like it’d rather stick to banking. For locals, fans, and urban arts denizens anywhere, the essential Any Night of the Week is full of inspiration, discoveries, and cautionary tales.” —Carl Wilson, Slate music critic and author of Let’s Talk About Love: A Journey to the End of Taste, one of Billboard’s ‘100 Greatest Music Books of All Time’ “Toronto has long been one of North America’s great music cities, but hasn’t got the same credit as L.A., Memphis, Nashville, and others. This book will go a long way towards proving Toronto’s place in the music universe.” —Alan Cross, host, the Ongoing History of New Music “The sweaty, thunderous exhilaration of being in a packed club, in collective thrall to a killer band, extends across generations, platforms, and genre preferences. With this essential book, Jonny has created something that's not just a time capsule, but a time machine.” —Sarah Liss, author of Army of Lovers

Book Description :

The night and popular music have long served to energise one another, such that they appear inextricably bound together as trope and topos. This history of reciprocity has produced a range of resonant and compelling imaginaries, conjured up through countless songs and spaces dedicated to musical life after dark. Nocturnes: Popular Music and the Night is one of the first volumes to examine the relationship between night and popular music. Its scope is interdisciplinary and geographically diverse. The contributors gathered here explore how the problems, promises, and paradoxes of the night and music play off of one another to produce spaces of solace and sanctuary as well as underpinning strategies designed to police, surveil and control movements and bodies. This edited collection is a welcome addition to debates and discussions about the cultures of the night and how popular music plays a continuing role in shaping them.
