Description

Shelby Grace Nash has spent years keeping the beat for superstar Emmy Whittaker, content to let her talent shine from behind the drum kit. But as she pivots to producing her own solo album, the professional spotlight isn't the only thing shifting. Stepping into the center of her own life forces her to confront the wreckage of her past, specifically the broken engagement to race car driver Ethan. As she deconstructs the failure of that relationship, she is forced to wonder: was it his lack of respect that ruined them, or was she simply chasing a life that never truly belonged to her? Her transition is further complicated by the intoxicating pull of Julia, Emmy’s sister. Their growing connection offers a promise of something genuine, yet the path to happiness is fraught with peril. Between the dangerous attention of a homophobic fan and the suffocating weight of societal tradition, Shelby Grace finds herself fighting for her autonomy in an industry that demands perfection. In this heartfelt installment of the Love in the Limelight series, Shelby Grace must decide if she has the courage to leave the shadows for good. It is a stirring tale of self-discovery, the bravery required to live authentically, and the transformative power of choosing love when everything else is on the line.

A lifetime of sharing the stage helps you see more than the shadows when you step into your truth.

Shelby Grace has always been beautiful, talented, star quality musician, but love was always beyond her reach. Julia had love her most of her life but always quietly. The characters are strong woman trying to live in a world that will not accept their truths. Finally they are willing to speak their truths to each other and see what happens. There are a cast of characters who give depth to this story and a few from previous stories help things out at the end. No spoilers here just a great story of love and acceptance for the life one chooses. A good read that will introduce you to such a good story of friends and family.

As Always

As always, Raven Spencer has written a story about love, life and HEA's. I love the way she pulls in characters from other stories she has written. It feels like meeting up with old friends. Well done!

Good but headachy

I never review. U just don't..but..this book is that one off. The concept of it is nice.. it's just the way it's written that gives me a headache trying to follow. It's wasn't proofread right and if it was wel.no.. but again the story concept is good.

My tears of joy are falling down my cheeks!

If you missed the first in this series, go get it! This second book just builds on it and the emotions are bubbling out of me. Raven Spencer is a gifted writer with a subject clearly needing to be shared. Dreams of the future for many LBGTQ people are in view and I am so very glad for all of them and us older ones who struggled are proud of the many changes. Let us be mindful, and steadfast in our growth and stand strong against slipping backwards. Buy this book, read it and promote it!
