From the bestselling author of Faking It and Friends of Mine: Thirty Years in the Life of a Duran Duran Fan…

Former teen pop star Joey "Paisley" Parker has loved her lucrative career as a music producer and engineer. However, industry shifts and changing listener habits threaten her livelihood, and she's faced with walking away before she turns fifty. Yet before she does, she agrees to produce one more album, by the British quintet Taro, who came of age with Joey in the 1980s and saw stardom rivaling that of the Beatles. They want to attempt one more comeback, and they believe Joey is the only producer who can make that happen.

Just one problem: Taro bassist Garrett Chandler, identical twin brother of the late drummer Gavin Chandler. Garrett and Joey share bad memories, hostility, and a ghost.

With a crowdfunding budget, a home recording studio on Long Island, and a little help from her friends, Joey and Taro begin the long trek back to the distant rock star world of glamor and excess they once knew. Furthermore, Joey finds herself at the dangerous edge of a professional boundary by getting personally close with Garrett. Ultimately, Joey risks losing a life's worth of credibility and achievement, as well as ending Taro's career forever.

Using her signature style of heart and humor, Elisa Lorello has crafted a timeless (and timely!) story of the love you need, the music you make, and the magic that happens between the notes.
