Songs from the Heart(land)
November 28th, 2009 by Nancy
I was perusing Lauren Brooke’s Heartland series the other day, and I couldn’t help but notice that a lot of her book titles are very close to or exactly the same as song titles! I wonder if it’s a coincidence… or maybe the series is a secret shout-out to her favorite playlist!
Here are some of her books:
Angst + Horses = Heartland
| Book & Song Title | Artist |
| Coming Home | The 88 |
| After the Storm | Norman Brown |
| Breaking Free | Troy (from HSM3!) |
| Taking Chances | Celine Dion / Glee Cast |
| Come What May | From Moulin Rouge Soundtrack |
| One Day You’ll Know | Mandy Moore & Jonathon Foreman |
| Out of the Darkness | Graham Nash |
| Thicker than Water | Jack Johnson |
| Every New Day | Five Iron Frenzy |
| Tomorrow’s Promise | Ok, I couldn’t find a music match on this one. |
| True Enough | Girlyman |
| Sooner or Later | Michael Tolcher |
| Darkest Hour | Ricky Skaggs |
| Everything Changes | Staind |
| Love is a Gift | Olivia Newton-John |
| Holding Fast | Closest: “Keep Holding On” by Avril Lavigne |
| Season of Hope | Closest: “Seasons of Love” from the Rent Soundtrack |
| New Beginnings | Gerald Albright |
| From This Day On | Cam |
| Always There | UB40 |
What song title might you borrow for your first novel? 😉
