SUPERSTAR A decade-spanning tale of soulmates torn apart by each's pursuit of a career in the late 20th century. Paul Montgomery's dreams are of music, of writing it as well as performing. His journey takes him from covering Beatle songs for high school dances in the mid-1960s to being acclaimed for his diversity in the world of rock 'n' roll. Particularly for composing a library of love songs. With sold out concerts around the world, singles and albums that repeatedly go gold then platinum, and innovative music videos on MTV, he seems to lead a charmed life. At least, professionally. Along the way there is tragedy: the loss of a friend to the Viet Nam war, the attempt to save a fellow rocker from her drug addiction, but it is winning and losing the only woman he's ever loved - twice - that is a never healing wound in his heart. For Aurora Chambers, it is the world of fashion that beckons. A scholarship for a summer design program in London is a carrot even her love for Paul can't best. Hurt by his seeming denigrating of her aspirations, she throws herself into the heart of Carnaby Street in 1967, and the arms of her instructor, Trevor Harris, a self-serving man who plans to use her talent as his steppingstone to better things. Unaware of Paul's continuing love for her, Rory binds her future to Trevor's. It is a step she soon learns to regret though it does bring her career success beyond her previous dreams. With a clothing line that repeatedly wins accolades on the catwalks, she has only one stumbling block. Her designs all carry Trevor's name, not her own. Aurora must marshal some of Trevor's own devious traits to take back what is hers. Secretly, she follows Paul's rise through the music trades, occasionally mourning the loss of what they'd had. When a second chance at happiness with him appears, she grabs it. And nearly destroys them both. Because sometimes love simply isn't enough. Revisit the recent past with SUPERSTAR as career dreams and love lock horns in the late 20th century (1964-1994). 5* "If you grew up in the 60's and 70's, you'll feel like you are reliving that time. Beth nailed it. You feel the hurt these characters are going through, and you understand why they make certain decisions. They aren't always the best decisions, which, of course, makes the story that much more compelling. Good times!" About the Author: Beth Henderson is the author of 30+ novels under various pseudonyms. Although she sings slightly off-key, that was not a deterrent when she was inadvertently writing copy for the evening disc jockey on WONE in Dayton, Ohio when in high school. He read the various silly news features she wrote for The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Lunch Bags newsletter on the air. Nor when being quoted by her first husband when he was on the air at various other radio stations. She spent many an evening as "the girl who came with the band" on dates with a jazz musician and later married another of the same ilk. And yet, she can honestly say, not a one of them contributed to the creation of Paul Montgomery. He simply walked into her mind in the late 1980s and hung around until she figured out his whole story - which took decades. As a result, her "relationship" with Paul is far longer than any she had with boyfriend or spouse. A fact that bothers her not a jot.
