5 CRANKY STARS


In this fourth installment about the McRae grandkids, we meet Viola and Leo. You do not need to read the other books, but it makes this one more fun if you are aware of the background on the McRae family. The family is exceptionally large and close so there are always people around. The author is particularly good at describing the area they live in, so that you feel as if you are there. I also find myself wishing I were part of this family.


Viola is a 17-year-old snowboarding champion. She competes all over the world. At the start of the story, she is in Italy competing when she meets Leo Banks, aka Banks. He is an up and coming rock star and is performing in concert at the meet. She has no idea who he is and is only vaguely aware of the songs he writes and sings. They meet in the lounge, over hot chocolate and spend a carefree evening together away from the hustle and bustle of their careers. Neither one of them has much free time. As they watch a movie together, that inevitable first kiss occurs. It is something neither can forget. Fast forward four years and Leo is coming to the estate to try to straighten out his career. He has a writer’s block and Viola’s mother is a world class violinist and music teacher. When he finally sees Viola, she is in a wheelchair. What has happened? He has suffered a tragic loss himself and there are all kinds of misunderstandings. Their reconnection is filled with misunderstandings and people trying to ruin Leo’s career. It is a roller coaster ride from there to the end of the book. Keep tissues at the ready, they will be needed. Great storyline, great characters and an overall, cannot put down story. A pleasure to read.
