Wicked Beats by C.D. Gorri

His music makes the world dance. But only she can make his soul sing.

David Mars—international DJ, chart-topper, and certified heartbreaker—has everything fame can buy. Sold-out shows. Endless parties. A life lived in the spotlight.

So why does it all feel so empty?

After witnessing the quiet happiness of rockstar Nathan Thorn and his wife, he escapes to their small New Jersey hometown, hoping a little of that magic might rub off.

What he finds instead is her.

Hilary “Larry” Sinclair is a nerd girl with a head for spreadsheets, a heart for books, and a successful small-town bookstore she built from the ground up. She’s not looking for chaos—or a tattooed, wicked-smiling DJ who sparks thoughts she definitely shouldn’t be having.

But when sparks fly, beats get wicked, and the music gets louder, some love stories refuse to stay quiet.
