ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date May 20, 2026

I plan other people’s love stories for a living. Perfect nights. Perfect moments. Perfect control.

So when my guitarist cancels an hour before a high-profile event, I do what any professional would do—panic quietly and pray for a miracle.

Then he walks in.

Late. Soaked from the rain. Incredibly handsome. Unapologetically charming.

A man I absolutely shouldn’t notice.

He plays music like the storm outside taught him how to feel.

He saves the night. And without meaning to, he starts unraveling mine.

I don’t know that he’s a world-famous musician in hiding.

I only know that when he looks at me, the world stops spinning.

I build love stories for other people. It’s chaotic, but it’s always strategic, straight-forward.

But this time, the one falling—hard, fast, and completely unplanned—is me.

There’s no seating chart that can contain, or explain, the storm that is Dexter Vaughn. But maybe his humor, guitars, and big heart are exactly what I need to build my own breathtaking love story.

REVIEW:Book three in the Heartbreak Mixtapes, Every Shattered Note is a slow burn emotional romance that I think will surprise many readers. As always, I recommend reading a series in order to get the most out of it, while each book can be read as a standalone in an interconnected world, reading in order really enhances the storyline.

Dex and Alyssa come into each other’s lives with nothing but chaos. Dex is a rockstar, one that struggles with the fame and the dual identities that it gives him. He used to live for the music, the rush of the connection of the fans through the music, now the pressure to be more, to do things differently has him questioning more than just his love for music. Alyssa on the other hand has lived her life for others for so long she has lost her way, or more like never found it. As an event planner she spends her time making other people’s dreams come true, but has grown so used to the controlled chaos of her life she can’t remember the last time she had a real connection with another person. That all changes when Dex walks into her life.

Every time I finish one of Claudia’s books, I think this is my favorite book, and then the next release arrives and I’m doubting myself. This author can weave stories and characters like a painter and their masterpiece. Dex and Alyssa’s story is so real, the emotions so raw that you’re left almost empty when the book finishes. As their story progresses from meet cute to the more serious parts, to the humor that they bring out in one another you can’t help but smile. As Dex and Alyssa work through their struggles and come out the other side you can’t help but root for them. The storyline flows well and is easy to keep up with, and as always the spice is just perfect even for a slow burn romance. For fans of this author, Dex and Alyssa are sure to be yet another amazing read.
