About this listen
When Dewey Preston decides to head west, his parents aren't happy. He's got his eyes set on a songwriter's utopia in the hills above Los Angeles. He wants to follow in the footsteps of other great folk musicians. Is there any more extraordinary place than Laurel Canyon, where celebrities like Mama Cass and David Crosby reside?
York Nesmith is an LA native. He's a loner who spends his time just trying to get by. When he and Dewey meet on a bus, they make a great connection. Unfortunately for Dewey, fame has its price. Does he follow his mind and continue to seek fame, or follow his heart and chase love?
Join best-selling author Daniel Elijah Sanderfer for this beautiful and sweet friends-to-lovers story set in the '60s.

Life has been a little hard on Waylon Evarts. Growing up in a place like Harlan, Kentucky, isn't easy. His mom is a waitress at a local diner, and his estranged father is hooked on meth. He and his mom live in a rundown trailer they inherited from his grandparents. It's paid for and on some land, but they're not living well. That is until he meets a roughneck boy named Scooter who's just moved in up the road from him. With his ripped jeans, tank top, and a mountain accent as thick as mud, Scooter is the picture of masculinity.
