Kevin Emerson's Exile, book one of the Exile series, combines the swoon-worthy romance of a Susane Colasanti novel with the rock 'n' roll of Eleanor & Park.Summer Carlson knows how to manage bands like a professional—minus the whole falling-for-the-lead-singer-of-the-latest-band part. But Caleb Daniels isn't an ordinary band boy—he's a hot, dreamy, sweet-singing, exiled-from-his-old-band, possibly-with-a-deep-dark-side band boy. She also finds herself at the center of a mystery she never saw coming. When Caleb reveals a secret about his long-lost father, one band's past becomes another's present, and Summer finds it harder and harder to be both band manager and girlfriend. Maybe it's time to accept who she really is, even if it means becoming an exile herself. . . . Rock and Roll Romance: She’s the band manager who knows not to mix business with pleasure. He’s the mysterious lead singer with a past he can’t escape. The combination is pure rock and roll chaos. Secret Identity: Caleb isn’t just another musician; he’s the son of a dead rock legend. Uncovering the truth about his father could launch his career—or destroy everything. Lost Songs Mystery: A cryptic letter from Caleb’s famous father hints at legendary unreleased songs.

But when the lines between manager and girlfriend blur, she has to choose between her professional ambition and her heart. Show more
