More Than An Encore - Paperback

by Jessa Hart (Author)

Five years ago, rockstar Jay Wyler walked out of Ava Davenport's life. She spent every day since becoming someone who didn't need him: a successful ER doctor, fiercely independent, and completely over it.

Or so she thought-until the night Jay's twin brother collapses onstage and she finds Jay at her hospital, barely holding himself together. One night unravels five years of distance. And the songs he wrote for her while they were apart make it very hard to pretend she ever stopped caring.

Jay has spent a year clawing back from rock bottom. He's managed to stay sober, but between panic attacks, a demanding band, a family in crisis, and the weight of a life lived too loudly, his stability is crumbling. Still, Ava holds him through it. That's what she'd always done.

But then she finds the empty bottle and realizes she's lived this before. She knows how this story ends.

This time, she has to decide if loving him is worth losing herself again.

Set against Nashville's gritty alternative music scene, More Than An Encore is a raw, emotionally charged romance about loving someone through mental illness and addiction-and learning that saving them might mean letting go.

Book one in The Crooked Souls Trilogy.
