SYNOPSIS:  Hot, young record producer Zachary Wilder has his eye on violinist Laurel Raineau. Laurel knows better than to get involved with a tabloid sensation, but Zachary Wilder is another story.


CONTEMPORARY ROMANCE |4| Patricia Sykes-Brown


REVIEW:  Rolling deep is a magnet that draws women, parties hard, and projects an unsavory image that turns Laurel Raineau off. Perceived as a bad boy promoter of useless noise, Zachary was determined to have a face-to-face confrontation with snobbish Laurel Raineau. When they finally meet, a consuming passion erupts between these two musicians that neither can walk away.

Zachary Albright Wilder, Rolling Deep or R.D. is a brilliant musician, businessman, and gorgeous hunk. Despite achieving platinum levels of success and being vigorously pursued by musicians of all genres, he struggles to overcome his father’s dismissal of his success. The pain of his father’s rejection and his love of classical music drive Zach to pursue classical musician Laurel Raineau with the hopes of producing an album.

Laurel Raineau has lived a sheltered life, despite being beautiful and having a successful career as a classical violinist. The fact that Zach follow her and did not disclose who he was, initially, is a reason for concern and involvement with him a big risk. Can she chance her heart to romance and love with R.D?

IT HAD TO BE YOU is a fiery and emotionally charged love story. The characters are complex, with heartwarming and believable characteristics. The story teaches an excellent lesson on misconceptions or incorrect perceptions of people in the music industry.

IT HAD TO BE YOU was a very easy and enjoyable read that made me have some wonderfully romantic feelings. I highly recommend this feature of the Grayson friends and family.
