Publisher's Summary:
Travel back to the loveswept world of Fortune's Island with New York Times and USA Today best-selling author Shirley Jump.
His voice pierced the darkest corners of her heart.
Waitress Jillian Matheson needs a life makeover. The first thing on her "Get it Together" to-do list is breaking up with her fiancé, Zach Gifford, a struggling rocker who refuses to grow up. With Zach on the sidelines, Jillian pursues the dream career she's secretly craved for decades and finds romance in the arms of a hot, mysterious visitor on Fortune's Island. There's just one kink in her plans. Zach's band has a regular gig at The Love Shack where she works. And she can't deny the effect of his velvet-cloaked voice, a voice that can still reach places she no longer allows his hands to touch.
She's the only song he ever wanted to sing.
Zach thought he had everything figured out - a music career on the edge of a breakthrough and a gorgeous fiancé - until Jillian left her engagement ring on his amp one night and walked out of his life. He is sure that he can get her to remember their shared passion and realize that they belong together, until a new man enters the picture and begins to sway Jillian's heart.
Is it ever too late for true love?
Just as Zach begins to break down Jillian's walls of resistance, a dark secret from his past comes to light and threatens to ruin their second chance at love. With shattered trust pushing them farther away from each other than ever before, can these two wounded hearts find their way back to each other before the last song?

3.5 STARS
While this book flowed with really good conversation and likeable characters, it just lacked depth of story and development of the two main characters for me to have given it a higher rating.
Jillian and Zach have known each other since grade school, dated for years and even got engaged, but Jillian ends the relationship because she feels second fiddle to Zach's music aspirations. She doesn't feel he is ready for a marriage commitment and shows no sign putting her and their future ahead of his desire to make it as a recording star with the rest of his band members. Zach soon discovers he has pretty much taken their relationship for granted and sets out to win Jillian back.
For the small amount of pages of this book, Shirley Jump puts together a nice tidy little package which keeps you reading and interested, but I just wish these books were longer in length to make it a really great, satisfying book.

Zach wants his Jilly Bean back
I love a good second chance romance, and especially appreciate tales of patching up or repairing a long term relationship, so I was really looking forward to this book. The thing I loved best about the first story in this series (And Then Forever) was the Love Shack itself, the people who worked there and the whole zest the place brought to the book. Sadly, this time around the Love Shack is nothing but an occasional set for the rest of the drama to unfold upon and around, and I did miss that fun side.
I also struggled a bit with the characters. On paper, Iâd be firmly on Jillianâs side with the way their relationship fell apart and the fact that Zach didnât react much for three months, butâ well, itâs not that I found Jillian unlikable, but there wasnât much to like about her either.
