Three reasons you should read this Rock Star Romance:
- Racing to Rhapsody by Selena Laurence is a trip back to the Rhapsody crew that I really enjoyed.
- The sparks between Dez and Shannon were hard to ignore, and only got harder they longer they tried to.
- While Dez’s parents weren’t major characters, they totally stole the scenes they were in – I loved them!

My Review of Racing to Rhapsody:
 Racing to Rhapsody by Selena Laurence was a fun look at two very different people who were very right for each other. Both Dez and Shannon were amazing characters. And I couldn’t help but cheer them on the whole way.
Both characters had very different things to overcome. Shannon’s relationship with her father was incredibly toxic. She struggles to walk away from it all and justify her feelings. Success isn’t all there is. And sometimes you do need to slow down.
Dez was a bit of a trip. He was soooo much fun and open-minded that I sometimes wondered how he could possibly like Shannon at all. But it turns he needed a little bit of her drive in his life.
Racing to Rhapsody wasn’t a big rush to the end. While there were plenty of exciting moments, there’s was some much-needed downtime for the characters to connect. it read a lot more real-world romance than many rock star romance I’ve read. And I really appreciate the look at the couple as just two people falling in love.
