Sangria

Nashville Nights, Book 1

By: Heidi McLaughlin

Narrated by: Melissa Moran, Oliver Highpoint

Under the bright lights of Nashville, Levi Austin is a country music superstar whose life is rocked by the tragic death of his former wife, leaving him to raise their two daughters alone. Levi packs his bags and rushes off to Los Angeles—the last place he wants to be, but the one place where no one will recognize him.

Zara Phillips loves two things: her husband Van, and the band she created with her brother. To her, her life is perfect. That is until she discovers that her husband is cheating on her. The paparazzi are relentless, forcing a devastated and heartbroken Zara to stay hidden until the record label demands she shoot a video for the band's new single, driving her out of seclusion.

Levi is focused on his daughters, trying to do what's best for them. Zara is determined to get away from everyone and everything in Los Angeles. Two heartbroken people collide from opposite worlds—neither knowing who the other is, yet both are intrigued by one another.

What transpires next are the lives of two very different people finding their path along a bumpy and unforgiving road, while being tested by their loved ones, the media, and an ex that doesn't plan to go away quietly.

Lots of Drama, Slow Burn romance, fun listen

This is definitely going to be a book I read again and again. When I am feeling down: I will be picking up Sangria. When I want to escape the day: I will be picking up Sangria. Most important of all; when I want to swoon over a beautiful true love: I will definitely be reading Sangria.

Sangria is a touching single dad romance. Levi Austin, beloved country singer, ends up in LA caring for his two daughters. He is such a great dad that I could spend days imagining different things he would do for his girls. What I didn't imagine was him ending up a music set while his daughter preforms as a dancer. How amazing is that??

He bumps into Zara Phillips, lead singer, and being from a different genres they are clueless about each other. It is hot. It is steamy. It is magnetic. And the story just gets better.

10/22/23 Sometimes I just need to read a feel good romance. Sangria left me all bubbly inside. Their HEA is a wonderful thing.
People are not happy with what might become. Despicable people will try and interfere. The things Levi says, the things Levi does had me wanting to stay for ever. Will it be enough for Zara?

I can't wait to read Sangria again so I can fall even more in love with the story.
