Only the Beginning by Laramie Briscoe
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Only The Beginning is a contemporary romance and book one of the Rockin’ Country series.

These books are music themed and this is the story of the romance between country singer Harmony Stewart and Garrett ‘Reaper’ Thompson, the leader of a rock band. At opposite ends of the music spectrum they seem like an unlikely match, but both understand the strains being on the road, and their connection blossoms quickly.

With romance around the corner Harmony has to work through her insecurities while Reaper’s temper may be too much for the couple. Can country meet rock and make a match? Will the fans approve of them getting together?

I enjoyed this story, the music scene was a setting that I don’t often choose to read about. There were some good secondary characters who will also have their own stories in following books.
