About this listen
From the bestselling author of This Is Not How It Ends comes a moving novel of two unfinished love stories and the music and lyrics that bring them together.
Journalist Cecilia James is a sucker for a love song. So when she stumbles across a clue to the identity of the muse for one of rock’s greatest, she devotes herself to uncovering the truth, even as her own relationship is falling apart.
While writing an article for Rolling Stone, Cecilia works to reveal the mystery that has intrigued fans and discovers a classic tale of two soulmates separated by fate and circumstance. Rock star Eddie Vee once sang with his soul, dedicating love songs to Sara Friedman, his inspiration and first love. Now, Eddie takes refuge in anonymity, closed off to the past. Sara, too, has distanced herself from their love, moving thousands of miles away to live the life she once railed against. As Eddie and Sara tentatively open up to Cecilia about broken dreams, she struggles to give them a happy ending. In the process, she learns that broken hearts can be healed—even her own.
What You Do To Me is the story of a love song and of the triumph of the heart over the greatest of odds. Even for those who have written off love forever.

“Lovable characters, a musical premise, and heartfelt emotion…this fun novel has it all!” —Woman’s World
“Weinstein’s story is a touching exploration of music’s power to change the world—and if not the whole world, then at least it will inspire a few love stories.” —BookTrib
“This book asks, what if a song like The Plain White T’s ‘Hey There Delilah’ was written about a musician’s first love—a Jewish girl named Sarah Friedman? Is there a more romantic concept than that? Rockstar Eddie Vee and Sarah did not end up together, but when Rolling Stone journalist Cecilia James tries to unearth the story behind that hit love song, she ends up unraveling a very complicated but epic love story and finding some truths about herself along the way.” —Kveller
