Dehlia Shaw Secret Love Song

"When the past walks back into your life, will you guard your heart-or let it break all over again?" Nova Marshall has learned how to keep the darkness at bay - hiding her scars behind smiles, clinging to small daily joys, and to the steady presence of Steven, the man who makes her feel safe. But one night, at the restaurant where she works, everything shatters. On stage, guitar in hand, is Vincent Cooper - her childhood best friend, her confidant, the boy who vanished without a word, leaving behind an ache that never truly healed. Now, caught between the life she fought to build and the pull of a bond that never let her go, Nova must decide: protect her heart, or risk breaking it all over again. Set against the vibrant yet bittersweet backdrop of San Francisco, Secret Love Song is the first book in a moving story of friendship, destiny, music, and the courage to love... even when it hurts.
