The Rebel with Broken Strings by Stacey Kennedy

Love, music, and Montana magic — a heartfelt finale to the Naked Moose series.

A heartwarming finale to Stacey Kennedy’s Naked Moose series, The Rebel with Broken Strings delivers everything I love about small-town romance: redemption, second chances, and the reminder that sometimes starting over leads you right where you’re meant to be.

Aubrey and Gunner’s story hits all the right beats. She’s a chef determined to rebuild her life after the big city left her bruised, and he’s a country musician trying to piece his back together after addiction and failure. Their chemistry is undeniable, but it’s the quieter moments of trust, forgiveness, and growth that give this story its heart.

Perfectly paced and emotionally grounded, this one proves you can chase your dreams and find love without losing yourself. It’s a satisfying, hopeful end to the series that left me smiling.

If The Rebel with Broken Strings sounds like your kind of romance, you can preorder your copy here or request it through your local library.
