Dalton is a country music star who has lived that life and now is ready to settle down. He is infatuated with Katie and wants her in his life. He has been trying to date her, but the most he has accomplished is a few dinners and rides home after she gets off work. Katie is crazy about Dalton, but believes that because of the secrets she keeps that it would never be more than it is now. The more time they spend together, the more they fall for each other.
When Dalton goes away to work on his music, he finds out one of her secrets and walks away from her. He just confirms what she new all along - that he would leave her eventually. Both try to move on. Then when her biggest secret is revealed everything changes for both of them. Dalton wants to show her that their love is possible and that not everyone leaves.
Oh how I just loved Dalton. I liked him saying "darlin'" almost as much as Katie did. Now don't get me wrong. I still wanted to give him a shake when he walked, but the man is delectable. My heart ached for Katie not only for the secrets she had to keep, but also for her being alone in all of that. She really is so strong and courageous. I also loved the people surrounding them in Devil's Bend and can't wait to read more about them.
I give Vanishing Dreams 5 hearts!
Dalton Calhoun hadn’t always planned on a life up on the big stage, beneath the bright lights, but that was where he found himself. A second chance of sorts. An opportunity that had come along after his real dreams vanished when he was eighteen years old. Although country music was more than he could’ve expected, he’d never dismissed the notion that there was still something missing.
When Dalton followed his buddy Cooper Krenshaw to Devil’s Bend, Texas, it didn’t take long before Dalton realized just what that was. But just because he has topped the country music charts, and made his fair share of women swoon, doesn’t mean that everything comes easy to him. And when he sets his sights on the black-haired, gray-eyed waitress at The Rusty Nail, Dalton realizes he might just have to work for what he wants.
Katie Clarren’s life has been a series of unfortunate events, starting from the time her mother left on her eighteenth birthday. Not exactly how she had planned to spend one of the major turning points in her young life. Nor had she planned to spend the next five years dealing with the fallout. Somewhere along the way, Katie adapted, doing exactly what she needed to do in order to survive. But Katie has secrets that even her closest friends don’t know. Secrets she has worked hard to protect.
Although she longs for handsome, charming, country music sensation, Dalton Calhoun, she knows that anything that starts between them can’t last. Too bad her heart doesn’t seem to be on the same page. Katie gives in to her love for Dalton, needing that human connection that has been missing for so long. But when it comes time to make the hard decisions, Katie forces herself to walk away from him. To protect her secrets, and him. The last thing she wants to do is hurt Dalton, no matter how much pain she has to endure in the process. She loves him.
Can the two of them overcome the secrets and lies? Can they look to the future and stop living in the past? Or will they keep dwelling on the dreams that vanished, not seeing what is right in front of them? Each other.
