Review: Wreck the Halls by Tessa Bailey

Title: Wreck the Halls

Author: Tessa Bailey

Melody Gallard may be the daughter of music royalty, but her world is far from glamorous. She spends her days restoring old books and avoiding the limelight (one awkward tabloid photo was enough, thanks). But when a producer offers her a lot of money to reunite her mother’s band on live tv, Mel begins to wonder if it’s time to rattle the cage, shake up her quiet life… and see him again. The only other person who could wrangle the rock and roll divas.

Beat Dawkins, the lead singer’s son, is Melody’s opposite—the camera loves him, he could charm the pants off anyone, and his mom is not a potential cult leader. Still, they might have been best friends if not for the legendary feud that broke up the band. When they met as teenagers, Mel felt an instant spark, but it’s nothing compared to the wild, intense attraction that builds as they embark on a madcap mission to convince their mothers to perform one last show.

While dealing with rock star shenanigans, a 24-hour film crew, brawling Santas, and mobs of adoring fans, Mel starts to step out of her comfort zone. With Beat by her side, cheering her on, she’s never felt so understood. But Christmas Eve is fast approaching, and a decades-old scandal is poised to wreck everything—the Steel Birds reunion, their relationships with their mothers, and their newfound love. 

Beat and Melody fit together like puzzle pieces despite the fact they haven’t met in years after their Mums had a huge falling out.

They are thrown together for a reunion but are complete opposites….sometimes that totally works though.

First of all this book made me want to throw things!

The segsual tension made me want to throw things. Then the absolute perfectness of Beat made me want to throw things! Then the third act drama made me want to throw things. So be prepared and protect your windows at all costs!

I was really hooked into this book until the 3rd act drama, that plot device really isn’t for me but this was cute, spicy and there was one Santa part that had me laughing out loud!
