Mash Up by Nia Arthurs

Music is his life. Until he meets Izzy. When it comes to music, Jace Kelly lives by his own rules. He’s a talented, reggae-jamming, non-weed smoking white boy. Reggae is imprinted in his identity and, despite his parent’s disappointment, Jace can’t stop the reggae jam. He’s focused on making it big and nothing can distract him. Until he meets her. Izzy Daniels is one of a kind. She’s gorgeous and smart and has the biting wit of a girl twice her age. Jace knows that what he feels for her is love… he just has to convince Izzy to let him prove it. Can this ambitious guitar player sweep Izzy off her feet? Or will his skin color forever keep his audience--and Izzy--from taking him seriously? Mash Up is a BWWM, young adult romance set in Belize. If you like heart-tugging heroines, a band that's like family, and tender young romance, you'll love this story. MASH UP was previously published as 'AMID THE NOISE'.
