About this listen

An R&B singer and a corporate executive find love that hits the right notes in this USA Today bestselling romance by Kristina Forest.

Iris Greene used to be a woman with a plan. But all of that changed after she met the love of her life at twenty-five, got pregnant and married…and then became a widow and a single mother all in a little over two years. Now, after years of hustling, Iris is the director of partnerships at a beauty company and raising sweet six-year-old Calla by herself. Despite her busy life, she still can’t help but feel lonely. She just needs to catch her breath—and one night, at her sister’s wedding, when she steps outside to do just that, she sees a certain singer who takes her breath away. . . .

By all accounts, pop R&B singer Angel Hughes has it made. He’s a successful musician and has just scored a brand ambassador deal with an emerging beauty company. But he’s still not fulfilled; he’s not producing songs he’s passionate about, and there’s a gaping hole in his love life. When he visits the Save Face Beauty office to kickstart his campaign, he’s delighted to see Iris, his stylist’s sister—the beautiful woman he’s secretly had a crush on for years.

Despite their obvious attraction to each other, they must stay professional throughout the campaign tour—a goal that doesn’t quite pan out. But when it becomes clear their lives aren’t in sync, can they fall back in step to the same rhythm and beat?

What the critics say

"Readers will have no trouble rooting for their happily ever after.”—Publishers Weekly

"Charming and poignant, this third novel featuring the Greene sisters, after The Partner Plot, is recommended for all public library collections.”—Library Journal, starred review

“Kristina Forest’s The Love Lyric is a gorgeous song of a book. At times it reads like a slow jam that will make you grin from ear to ear and kick your feet. And then it’s a ballad, pulling on your heartstrings and making you swoon. Clearly Forest’s Angel and Iris are made for each other, just like the rhythm and blues that provides a backdrop for this stunning end to the Greene sisters series.”—Myah Ariel, author of When I Think of You

Editorial Review

Make your emotions work for you
I’m a big believer in feeling your feelings. After all, expressing yourself is a part of creating healthy coping mechanisms and helpful communication, and who among us doesn’t enjoy a good cry at the end of a devastating audiobook? But there are also times when our emotions can get in the way of us showing up as our best selves. For example, has anxiety over something in your personal life ever left you unable to complete your tasks at work? Or perhaps you’ve been so angry at your partner for leaving their shoes in the middle of the living room that it led to an explosive argument? In Shift: Managing Your Emotions—So They Don’t Manage You, psychologist and bestselling author Dr. Ethan Kross asks, “What if your emotions could work for you?” Kross offers scientifically backed advice for using your emotions as a tool, whether that’s strategically avoiding a negative feeling when appropriate, or using your feelings to propel you forward. If you’re a human with a pulse, this one is for you. —Rachael X., Audible Editor
