Erster Abschnitt:
Tonight was going to be epic. I could feel it.

A band trying to win it big on reality TV. A secret romance that might ruin it all. 

Music major Maddie Taylor just finished her junior year of college and has a summer internship lined up with the LA Philharmonic, yet every night she practices guitar and secretly dreams of a louder life. But geeky girls like her don't get to be rock stars. That is, until tattooed singer Jared Cross catches her playing guitar and invites her to join his band on The Sound, a reality TV show competition. 

Once on the show, Maddie discovers there’s more to Jared than his flirty smile and bad boy reputation – and that he’s just as big a geek as she is. With each performance their attraction becomes impossible to ignore, but when the show pressures them to stay single they’re forced to keep their relationship secret. 

As the competition heats up, Jared will do whatever it takes for his band to win, and Maddie must decide if following her dream is worth losing her heart.

,,I need your help,'' he said, fixing an intense gaze on me. ''We have a live audition tomorrow for The Sound. Problem is, our bassist quit last night, an we need a fourth member of the band.''
,,What?'' Was he saying what I thought he was saying? No. Impossible.
,,I know - worst timing ever. Can you play bass by any chance?''
,,No...''
His face fell for instant, and some reckless part of me wanted to lie and say him I'd learn. How hard could it be to learn the bass if I knew how to play guitar, right? Though I immediately realized how dumb that idea was because a) I could never learn bass in time for an audition tomorrow; b) I shouldn't care about making Jared happy; and c) none of that mattered because he couldn't possibly be asking me to join the band anyway.
,,That's okay,'' he said. ,,I can play bass, and you can play guitar. It'll work. His smile lit up his face again, with a look that could charm any girl lucky enough to bask in it. Right now, that girl was me. ,,So what do you think?'' (eBook, S.21)
