| Publisher Description: What happens when a London rock star, falls in love with an ordinary Australian girl? Can Lola feel the music, before it's too late? Lola has a secret. It's not that her mother has kicked her out of home. Or that her new housemates are dead people. It's not hiding her growing feelings for Kain, the punk rocker who's recently arrived in town and turned her world upside down. Lola is going deaf, which for a musician, totally sucks. Lola has one chance to change her destiny, from undertaker to classically trained musician. Can she win a scholarship to London, before her hearing disappears completely? |
