Jane’s Harmony picks right up where Jane’s Melody left off. Jane and Caleb are in a relationship and Jane has moved to Austin to start her life with him.
She is adjusting to living in a small apartment and is trying to find work.

As the story flows, Caleb is actually chosen to be on a reality musician television program (think American Idol). He has to leave Jane behind and go to LA for a few months.
While he is away the two deal with having a long distance relationship and the issues that come with that. Jane finds work as a meter maid while Caleb is off trying to get ahead in the competition. There is a beautiful girl named Jordyn who is pretty much neck in neck with him and she seems to take an interest in Caleb. Also an issue is how Hollywood depicts these reality tv stars however they like, in order to entice the public into watching.

I found this second installment lagged just a little for me. I also thought the whole reality tv show aspect of the story to be a far fetched. I would rather have seen these two deal with more realistic every day issues as opposed to Caleb becoming somewhat of a reality tv star while trying to get his music career going.

I do have to say, I like both of these characters and their love does shine through these pages. Caleb is devoted to Jane and just wants her to be happy. I also like that Caleb is mature and responsible. At the end of the day, he really wants to provide for Jane. The author’s writing style can be really sweet, which I also enjoyed.

I thought some of the sex scenes in this one were uncomfortable to read, either they were too explicit or just a little weird. I see these two being more lovey dovey romantic than Jane turned almost dominatrix. It was too much information during some scenes.

In the end, every single thing gets wrapped up nice and neat with a pretty bow on top for good measure. So if you enjoy sickeningly sweet happy endings, you might like that.
Overall, while I enjoyed some of it, I wasn’t too crazy about this second installment. It just felt unrealistic to me and at times I felt Jane mothered Caleb.

Disclaimer: These reviews are my honest opinion. I did not receive any kind of compensation for reading and reviewing this book. I am under no obligation to write a positive review. I purchased my copy of Jane’s Harmony by Ryan Winfield.
