A Slipping-Down Life

Evie Decker is a shy, awkward high school student living in Pulqua, North Carolina. The one thing that makes her feel less alone is the radio, and one night, as she’s listening to her usual “Sweetheart Time” program, she hears him for the first time. For Evie, the cool voice of local singer “Drumstrings” Casey is love at first sound. Casey’s magnetism inspires reserved Evie to take destiny into her own hands. After following him to his next show at the Unicorn Roadhouse, their worlds collide and their lives become inextricably entwined. But as Casey becomes real—sometimes painfully real—right before Evie’s eyes, Evie discovers that life with her rock ’n’ roll idol isn’t all poetic lyrics and high notes.
