If you haven't read The Gift yet here is the synopsis:
Beautiful Maggie Mae Williams, a singer in a country-rock band from Boston, is
an aspiring bluegrass mandolinist. While on a trip to New Orleans to visit her
former college roommate, Maggie meets Zak Robichaud and Justin Boudreau, two
musicians in the Cajun blues/rock band the Bayou Blasters. Maggie quickly falls
in love with Zak, the dazzling lead guitarist. Despite her parents’ reservations
and a warning from Zak’s ex-girlfriend Jacqueline, Maggie moves in with Zak and
Justin into their bungalow near Lafayette, Louisiana. They begin music careers
that lead to success beyond their wildest dreams, Maggie with her bluegrass band
Little Maggie, and Zak and Justin with the Bayou Blasters. But Maggie and Zak
find it difficult to balance the demands of their careers with those of their
personal lives. As the pressures of touring start taking their toll, Maggie
finds herself increasingly attracted to Justin, the steady and reliable bass
player who is able to offer her emotional support when she needs it the most.
"The Sweetest Gift" is the sequel to the novel "The Gift" and continues the
story of Maggie Mae Williams, singer/songwriter and bluegrass mandolinist:
It has been five years since the end of the first book. Maggie has found out
that her husband Zak, the charismatic lead guitarist of the Cajun blues/rock
band the Bayou Blasters, has been having an affair with their children's nanny.
Maggie divorces Zak and moves to Nashville to live with her music partner Tucker
Travis. After winning several Grammy awards, Maggie and Tucker have become
famous as the King and Queen of Country music. They are engaged and about to be
married, when Justin, the former bass player in Maggie's bluegrass band Little
Maggie, returns from his self-imposed five year exile. He has finally decided to
reveal a secret that turns everyone's world upside down and causes Maggie to
reassess the direction of her life.
