His fingers bled. Her body healed. It was more than a scalped concert ticket. It was a life change. Diana Shaw is every parent's dream. She's a straight A student, loved by great friends, keeps her nose clean with boys, and sings in the church choir with her mother, while her father watches proudly from the pew. Diana is sunshine and happiness to most, until her life is torn apart over an eighteen month stretch of nightmarish treatment, which she tells nobody about. Until someone makes a gruesome discovery after a concert one night. Can she go against everything she believes in and lie, or does she tell a total stranger the truth and risk everything?
Danny Spellman is the lead guitarist for the popular and long-running band 'Risk It'. Female fans adore him, male fans want to be him, and his bonds with his band members are strong and fruitful. In the business ten years and running strong, on the last night of the band's world tour, Danny meets a little wallflower that notices something about him that nobody else has. Intrigued, Danny pushes her, testing her limits, until he learns something about her that both terrifies and infuriates him all at the same time.
With a sudden shift of the testosterone level in his house, Danny finds himself comforting Diana, befriending her, and learning things about the female species that he would never have guessed. And just when Danny thinks that Diana's innate strength is something gleaned through heartache, she invites him to church, to hear her sing. Feeling like he's discovered the next big thing, Danny is feverishly on the phone with his producer and recording company. Little does he know that he's stirring the pot with someone he least expects to be watching. And the gunshot is the telling tale.
Loaded with tons of emotion and inspiration, this rock star romance will leave readers looking at the music industry and the artists in a whole different light. Like in real life, things are not always as they seem in a rock star's life. We sometimes forget that these people are human. This book reminds us of that.
