Cori Elion never planned to fall in love in Barcelona. She came for the prestigious music program, determined to outrun the shadows of her past. Her plan? Keep her head down, and compose something that matters.
But Barcelona doesn’t play by her rules.
Enter Félix—a soulful guitarist with a crooked smile and a knack for reading her like sheet music.
And Jude Rhode—international pop star, walking distraction, and the promise of a no-strings-attached escape.
Caught between two men, two lives, and two versions of herself, Cori must decide: will she keep protecting her heart? Or finally risk letting it lead?
The Beat of Barcelona is a heartwarming and steamy romance about music, friendship, and the courage to follow your heart. Even when it’s complicated.
