Love and Music in Texas #7
Extraordinary Dreams
This is Love and Music in Texas book 7. If you've read Skyrocket, you'll know the Bare My Soul tour from Kyra and Matt's point of view. But this is also Baby Stetson's first major tour, and the series began the focus on Baby Stetson, so Extraordinary Dreams was born. It won't be the same scenes from Skyrocket in another point of view, though some may overlap slightly. These will be all new scenes and feelings from some Baby Stetson members.

About the author
Nikki Lynn Barrett
95 books1,246 followersNo matter where she goes, USA Today Bestselling author Nikki Lynn Barrett hears voices in her head. Instead of calling her crazy and locking her up, her family realizes it's just a product of being an author and allows her to write the stories so that the voices shut up.
But they don't. And probably never will. There's no need to lock her up, Nikki knows she'll never escape the voices, not until each and every last story is written. And for every story she writes, about ten or more ideas pop up.
When she isn't slaving away at her computer writing books that will probably make you cry and keep you in suspense, Nikki plots to take over the world one book at a time. What? It's a sickness. One she can't escape!
Books aren't her only addiction, though. Nikki can be found making up parodies to drive her son crazy, and bantering back and forth with her husband, who somehow manages to steal her away from the fictional world she lives in all the time.
Nikki lives in Arizona with her husband and son, where she can be found using every creativity outlet she can find through music, photography, handcrafted things, and random interests that she may pick up from time to time.

This book overlaps Skyrocket some and gives us Baby Stetson’s viewpoint of the tour. It is so crazy how news outlets make up things just to sell their media. I felt bad for the group with all the false news being reported about them. I loved all the pranks they played on each other. It was such a good time for them to bond and get closer to each other. I felt bad for Avery as she hated leaving her young daughter, husband and parents. Something happens to Avery’s mother that had me in tears. I have love this series and can’t wait for the next book. I strongly encourage you to read the book. I was given a copy of the book and voluntarily wrote a review.

This book gives us Baby Stetson’s viewpoint of the tour. You have Avery [lead singer of the band] who is feeling guilty about leaving her 1 1/2 yr. old daughter and she has a feeling that something is going on with her parents. The tour has some great pranks in out but, even when the tour ends the pranks continue. I did not like the false news stories. Their were problems with all members that came out while on tour. Stuff from past relationships, paranoia [from one band member that his past would come back and haunt him] to stage presence [by another member]. The band stood behind each other and helped each other deal with their fears. When Avery finally found what was wrong with her mom it broke my heart. Avery did have a lot of support from family, friends and the whole town. This book was very well written and it teaches you that with the right support you can handle anything!! Thank you Nikki Lynn Barrett for this awesome book!! I truly loved this book!!

Full of love, friendship and music!
While reading this series, I felt like Nikki Lynn Barrett is not just a writer, but a storyteller and I'm sitting in the room with her listening to her tell me each of these stories. Her dialogue is just so down to earth and heartfelt.
Baby Stetson is finally on tour with Kyra Sanders, on her comeback tour, and this book is told through lead singer Avery's, aka Baby Stetson's, point of view. Music truly is the glue that binds all these characters together, but NLB really knows how to write about the true meaning of love, friendship, huge struggles and enormous triumphs - yes, extraordinary dreams! Nikki truly has a gift of making the reader "feel.". You did it again, Nikki, you made me reach for the tissues. I wish I could give more than 5*s to this entire series and eagerly await the next book!

I loved that this book was the bands view of what was taking place while reading Skyrocket and Kyra and Matt's story. I loved this book it was so hard to put down and it was a super quick read. In the end of this book I was very torn because I feel like this book could be the end of the series right now, however I also feel like the author sucks you in and has you wanting, as saying stick around the best is yet to come. I love that this read was a good clean read and you got to catch up on so many fun characters. You really can not go wrong with this book or this series. I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own."

Baby Stetson is going on Tour...with Kyra Sanders. Their dream is becoming a reality!!!
Great story regarding triumphs, fun, shenanigans and struggles of being on tour. How to balance family with the demands of fans and a tour schedule.
Mrs. Barrett once again touches on real life issues; weaving the challenges into her stories. Reminding us that although her stories are fiction, reality presents us all with opportunities to find our strength and determination to overcome and live our best lives and pursue our dreams.

All good things end
As the tour comes to an end the pranks continue and the drama becomes more crazy but along the tour sadness and coming to terms on people in your life can either hurt or build the band. In the end it's up to everyone as a unit to decide which way it goes.

This author is one of the few who can break my heart and put it back together over the course of a book. Avery and her band are about to take off on tour and have their dreams come true. What they don't count on is everyone having some kind of problem. For Avery, it's struggling with pursuing her dreams while leaving her young toddler and husband at home.
I have read every book in this series and I highly recommend this book and the entire series! It has been fun to watch the band members grow as individuals throughout the series. I cannot wait for the next book!
