Publisher's summary

Perfect for fans of Taylor Jenkins Reid & A Star is Born, get swept away to the summer of love with this unforgettable, escapist hit…

_________________________________________________________________

‘If you enjoyed Daisy Jones and The Six, this will be a big hit with you tooRed

‘Utterly transporting’ Stylist

The summer of 1969: Rising singer-songwriters Jane Quinn and Jesse Reid looked untouchable.

Captivating crowds in festival meadows, lighting up turntables, intoxicating fans from coast to coast.

It was a connection that inspired the greatest love songs.

But nothing lasts forever.

Beneath the hits that made them, a dark secret threatened to break them. Now it’s time to hear the whole story, finally revealed in Jane’s iconic album, Songs in Ursa Major . . .
