If you missed the previous spoiler message, I’m telling you again. THIS PAGE MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS!
These are some of the songs I listened to when writing Break My Heart. They are separated into individual lists for Scott and Jan since they each had a voice in the book. If you read the book, you obviously know that music plays its own part in the story (if you didn’t read the book, please see message above). I hope you see some of your old favorites in the lists, as well as some new songs to check out. Enjoy!
