Relatives and the unique, Louisiana culture have influenced me in many ways and I hope the nuances show in my writing. I come from a large family and expanded it by starting my own (I got married then had 2 kids). As a family, we've never been known to be short with dialogue. My dad tells lots of engaging and humorous stories, too. Through multitudes of talks with my grandmother I've learned a lot of cool things and she’s told us many amusing and compelling stories. I love the people, and I LOVE a great story. But, someone comes back into her life sending her into a myriad of self-examinations and commotion. Ollie's hopes are high as her path crosses several eligible bachelors. Now, to have every last one of her dreams come true all she has to do is find the love of her life. But, fate is smiling in her direction and she'll have a chance to be at a Heaven concert, and even their meet & greet, right in her own town. Her life has taken turns leading her away from her beloved Ash and Heaven. Fifteen years later, Ollie is grown and has recently been promoted to a great new job.

She and her two 'besties', Zoey and Mary Beth, consumed themselves with Heaven music and gossip every second they got. In high school Ollie's celebrity crush was Ash Bradford, lead guitarist of the band Heaven. The story follows the lives of Ollie McBride and the members of her favorite band, Heaven.

If you ever dreamed about meeting your celebrity crush, you will totally get this cute, quirky, and fun read. OR maybe your crush IS Harry Styles of One Direction and 5SOS. What girl hasn't had a crush on a band or celebrity growing up? Maybe it was Back Street Boys or Duran Duran.
