The magazines didn't do him justice.   

Not long after running away from home, Daniela Isabella joins Moonlight Drive's 1985 Live and Wired tour, hoping her long-lost friend, Nick, will remember her.  

He's finally made it — just like he promised. He's the bassist for one of the biggest rock bands in the world.  

Only, he's reinvented himself and doesn't recognize his childhood sweetheart. Nicki Quick has been seduced by the decadent lifestyle of the music scene of the eighties, lost in a haze of sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll. And to Nicki, Dani is just another chick in a long line of groupies.  

He soon finds she isn't like the other girls, though. Music runs through her veins — it's part of her soul. She's a songwriter. A dreamer. A girl determined to make it in a boys' world.  

This is the story of two musicians. A boy and a girl. A man and a woman. Two people who learn that being lost is sometimes the same as being found. 

Author Note: Moonlight Drive is a 57,000-word novel. More literary fiction, less romance. The characters and their intense and realistic actions drive the plot. Contains content that may trigger some readers.

5+ Stars for this heart-wrenching story!

5 Stars for this heart-wrenching story!

This is a very raw look at the lifestyle of a rock star in the 80s and I couldn’t put it down. This is one of those books that will stay with me for a long time and I will think of it with tears in my eyes ... like I have right now.

Dani and Nick met each other when they were 11 and 13 and deep down they both knew that they were soul mates. When Nick and his mother moved away when he was 15, he promised Dani that he would always find her. But he got caught up in the lifestyle of a rock star that when she entered his life again 6 years later, he was so high that he didn’t even recognize her. But she changed a lot in those years from 13 to 19 and also her hair went from blonde to black. She didn’t tell him who she was.

It broke my heart the pain he caused her by getting high, drunk and being with other women right in front of her, even though he had no clue that it was his Dani. I laughed and cried (mostly cried) with them on this journey that spans their life from teens into their 30s. Rock stars are my favorite genre and this one is at the top of my list! I highly recommend it ... but don’t expect the typical rock star romance.

I received an early copy courtesy of the author in exchange for a honest review.
