She wanted to be a star... until he crushed her dreams in front of millions.

When Ivy Quinn’s father dies, her dream of moving to Nashville gets put on hold, but she refuses to give up on a music career. That is, until country superstar Nash Bennett delivers a devastating critique of her audition on national television. Humiliated, Ivy returns home to her supportive family and a stable job, deciding she's better off leaving the harsh spotlight behind for good.

Meanwhile, stardom hasn’t been easy for Nash. Labeled a “bad boy” by the press and recovering from a tour injury, he's handed a one-way ticket to Idaho to heal and hide out while his PR team repairs his damaged reputation. But when he unexpectedly hears Ivy sing, Nash forgets all about lying low. He asks her out, only to be rejected—hard—when Ivy fiercely tells him to leave her alone.

One impromptu duet forges an undeniable connection between them. Nash is determined to win her over, but the emotional stakes are incredibly high for Ivy. She refuses to give in to her feelings, terrified that rekindling her dreams of a music career—and trusting Nash—could destroy her all over again. She has no idea just how much the superstar is willing to risk for love…and for her.
