"I would love you forever, if I only had the chance..."
Kacey Dawson has always lived life on the edge--impulsively, sometimes recklessly. And now, as lead guitarist for a hot up-and-coming band, she is poised at the brink of fame and fortune. But she is torn between wanting to be a serious musician, and the demons that lure her down the glittering, but alcohol-soaked path of rock stardom. A wrecked concert in Las Vegas threatens to ruin her career entirely. She wakes up with the hangover from hell and no memory of the night before, or how she ended up on her limo driver’s couch...
Jonah Fletcher is running out of time. He knows his situation is hopeless, and he's vowed to make the most of the handful of months he has left to him. His plans include seeing the opening of his glass installation at a prestigious art gallery…they do not include falling in love with a wild, tempestuous rock musician who wound up passed out on his couch.
Jonah sees that Kacey is on a path to self-destruction. He lets her crash with him for a few days to dry out and get her head on straight. But neither of them expected the deep connection they felt, or how that connection could grow so fast from friendship into something more. Something deep and pure and life-changing…something as fragile as glass, that they both know will shatter in the end no matter how hard they try to hold on to it.
Full Tilt is a story about what it means to love with your whole heart, to sacrifice, to experience terrible grief and soaring joy. To live life with all its beauty, and all its pain, and in the end to be able to smile through tears and know you wouldn’t have changed a thing.

***FIRST BOOK IN A TWO PART DUET***
OMG people – this book had all the feels, and I can tell you my heart was swelling and breaking the whole way through. It took me on a roller coaster of emotions as I watched two lost souls find love and happiness together.
Kasey was definitely at rock bottom when she crossed paths with Jonah. After a couple of nights celebrating after performing with her band Kasey was able to take a break and take time re-evaluating her life while crashing on his couch. I liked getting a little insight into Kasey and the struggles she had, although I could see that Jonah was holding something back.
I liked the way Jonah was able to light up Kasey’s life and how she wanted to change. Jonah had a purpose, with his busy schedules, and when Kasey came into his life, she disrupted his well-planned life. The more I got to know Jonah, I could feel my heart breaking and understood why he was so focused and tried to keep Kasey at arm’s length. It was sweet seeing their relationship and feelings grow, and how deep their love would become.
Emma Scott blew me away with this read! I was emotionally wrecked by the time I got to the end. I shed many tears and my heart broke for both Kasey and Jonah. I noticed a few moments throughout the read, especially towards the end and I have hope for Kasey in the next book.

These two were so sweet and passionate together, my heart ached for them both!
I turned back to Jonah. He looked down at me and our eyes locked. In the next heartbeat I was standing on my tiptoes and pressing my lips to his. He made a sound in his chest, as if in pain, and I felt the answering ache in mine. I pulled away before the soft kiss became a hard promise I couldn’t keep.
I turned and climbed into the car and didn’t look back. Not even to wave.
I wasn’t ready to say goodbye.

Instead, I kissed him like a lover—deep and long, and with everything I had. With every ounce of infinite love that dwelt in me.
I kissed Jonah Fletcher with all of my heart, and with every piece of my soul that would love him forever.
