About this listen
A rising-star musician has a second chance at love with an old flame she remembers all too well in this swoony romance from the acclaimed authors of The Roughest Draft.
Riley Wynn went from a promising singer-songwriter to a superstar overnight, thanks to her breakup song concept album and its unforgettable lead single. When Riley’s ex-husband claims the hit song is about him, she does something she hasn’t in ten years and calls Max Harcourt, her college boyfriend and the real inspiration for the song of the summer.
Max hasn’t spoken to Riley since their relationship ended. He’s content with managing the retirement home his family owns, but it’s not the life filled with music he dreamed of. When Riley asks him to go public as her songwriting muse, he agrees on one condition: he’ll join her band on tour.
As they perform across the country, Max and Riley start to realize that while they hit some wrong notes in the past, their future could hold incredible things. And their rekindled relationship will either last forever or go down in flames.

Story
When nineteen-year-old Abbey Bly gets the opportunity to study abroad for a year in London, it's the perfect chance to finally slip out from under the thumb of her beloved but overbearing retired rock star father. She's ready to be free, to discover herself - but first off, to meet the girls she's rooming with. That is, until she arrives at her gorgeous new flat to discover those roommates are actually all boys. Charming, funny, insufferably attractive boys. And off-limits, with a rule against fraternizing between housemates after unwanted drama with the previous girl.

Story
Ten years later, I'm back on the island for my best friend's wedding as her maid of honor. Who's the first person I literally stumbled into? Riley Dixon. Even worse? He's the groom's best man and a self-made billionaire to boot. Being forced to spend an entire week together for wedding festivities quickly leads to more—hot hate sex, late nights of sneaking out, and unexpected revelations. The boy I knew a decade ago is gone, and the hate becomes… something else entirely. And I begin to wonder if Riley is hiding some secrets of his own.

Story
Sam’s life is on track. She has the perfect doctor fiancé, Jack (his strict routines are a good thing, really), a great job in Manhattan (unless they fire her), and is about to tour a wedding venue near her family’s Long Island beach house. Everything should go to plan, yet the minute she arrives, Sam senses something is off. Wyatt is here. Her Wyatt. But there’s no reason for a thirty-year-old engaged woman to feel panicked around the guy who broke her heart when she was seventeen. Right?

Story
After a particularly brutal breakup, Cassidy Sutton has had it with dating. So when her grandmother gives her a 1950’s dating guide entitled 125 Tips to Hook a Husband, she decides to turn the retro advice into an ironic “What not to do” article for Siren, the popular online women’s publication she writes for. And who better to secretly test the old-fashioned tips on than Jack Bradford, chauvinistic creator of rival men’s site Brawler? She’ll write an article that will entertain female readers everywhere and embarrass their sexist nemesis at the same time. Two birds, one stone.

Story
Two weeks before Christmas and all through Manhattan, shop windows are decorated in red and green satin. I'm standing alone in front of the famous Vivant department store, when a charming man named Aiden asks my opinion of the décor. It's a tragedy in tinsel, I say, unable to lie. He asks for a better idea with a twinkle in his eye. Did I know he owned the place? No. He put me on the spot. Now I'm working for that man, trying to ignore that he's hot. But as a down on her luck girl with a difficult past, I know an opportunity when I see one—and I have to make it last.

Story
Callum Griffin is the heir to the Irish mafia. He’s ruthless, arrogant, and he wants to kill me. We got off on the wrong foot when I set a (very small) fire in his house. Our families believe a marriage pact is the only thing that will prevent all-out warfare. I think I might need to murder him while he sleeps. This would all be a lot easier if Callum wasn’t so damned good-looking.

Critic reviews
“If The Breakup Tour was a song, it would be ‘Long Live’ by Taylor Swift. It's deliciously zeitgeisty and so! much! fun! The Breakup Tour is at once sweet and angsty, full of music and second chances and talented people who make magic when they allow themselves to create art together. The perfect read for everyone who wants to relive the spectacular summer of The Eras Tour!”—Ali Hazelwood, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Love, Theoretically
“How fitting that a pair of writers in perfect harmony would create a story about music that comes from the heart! The Breakup Tour is like a song you can’t stop humming—honest, sweet, and unforgettable."—Jodi Picoult, New York Times bestselling author
"You know that moment in a song when the drums first kick in? When the music builds into an anthemic chorus? When the bridge HITS with the emotional pulse of the whole song? That was the journey Wibberley and Siegemund-Broka took me on with The Breakup Tour. I ached for all the reasons Max was saying no to the life he wasn't sure he deserved—in the public eye, performing night after night. And all the reasons Riley had been saying yes for years, her talent and fame taking flight even as she couldn't forget the one person she'd left behind. I felt this one deep in my gut like the pounding bass of my favorite song."—Alicia Thompson, USA Today bestselling author of With Love, from Cold World
I really liked Riley - she felt real and I admit, I often imagined TS in the role - reading the lines, what her expressions would look like.
I listen to a lot of dual POV/couples books and it's a genre I greatly enjoy. But I struggled with Max. He was a likeable character for the most part, but his parts were... I don't know... flowery? He tended to wax poetic a bit much for me. Don't get me wrong, I swoon over a guy who is in touch with his emotions and sensitive side. But his language was more fanciful than most anyone would use in this era. More like an old fashioned romance novel in some places.
Despite that, I enjoyed the story and will give the author another try.
A fun listen

Heartbreakingly Beautiful

This is a cute read for any Taylor Swift fan. The FMC Riley goes on tour reliving her past breaks-ups (much like her going through Eras). It just so happens that her high school/college(?) sweetheart joins her. Readers will spend time trying to figure out the parallels to Taylor Swift.
Why was this not a five star read for me?
It was a little slow.
Honestly, MMC Max was not my favorite lead.
I felt like their issues weren’t solved as a couple?
I spent too much time making parallels to Taylor Swift and it distracted me.
Here are some of what I caught:
Coachella, Calvin Harris, tour ending in Los Angeles, November = Back to December, Until You = All Too Well, mom and dad divorce, Joe Arden/Jake Gyllenhaal
Audiobook narration: Brittany was an 15/10, Austin was an 8/10
Swifties will love

Max has no personality and adds nothing to the story. Other than he somehow manages to add himself to her tour and is for some reason obsessed with his familial obligation… which his family wants him to let go of… and he doesn’t want to. I didn’t find myself rooting for the main couple. At all. Both too different, insecure and whiny. The authors wanted the audience to believe they were this once great love story (they weren’t) and that in present day they continued to ooze undeniable chemistry (they didn’t).
I really wanted to love this one, I just didn’t connect with the story or characters.
Very meh
