No Love Songs

By S A Fanning

Myles Bennett hopes his punk band, The Wide Awakes, will be his ticket out of an abusive home. But a viral video of him and Mal, the band's lead singer and rising star, puts a spotlight on his obvious feelings for her while driving tensions in the band. Noah, Myles's best friend and the band's drummer, may have filmed the video, but he wasn't in it, leaving him seething with poorly-hidden jealousy as the views pile up.

When Myles and Mal are invited to appear on a major podcast without Noah, they "accidentally" kiss while celebrating, further complicating the band's already shaky dynamics. Meanwhile, Myles is counting the days until he can move out of his grandmother's house, where Hank, her abusive husband, is determined to make Myles quit music and get himself a "real" job.

With both his band and home life in turmoil, Myles struggles to push away his true feelings for Mal, hide his bruises, and keep his band together. When The Wide Awakes land a spot at a major music festival, it should make all of Myles's dreams come true, but the stage may be too big for him to save everything-and everyone-he loves.
