Stage Fright

Jessica Hart is a single mother who is given the chance to join the church choir on a tour in England. As hard as it is to leave her son behind, she knows this may be a once in a lifetime trip. Jessica loves to sing but can become paralyzed with stage fright if even a hint of the spotlight showcases her. How will she follow her dream if she cannot overcome this debilitating weakness? Will this trip help her heal the past and give her the strength to move forward?

Martin is a famous tenor whose reputation is overshadowed by scandal. Somehow he ends up as a guest with the choir and joins the tour. It seems his past isn't so easily forgotten and has followed him while on the tour. Why is his past coming back to haunt him now? When will he be free of this darkness?

This is my first book by this author and I was pleasantly surprised. I sat down thinking ok just a few chapters and next thing I know I'm finished. The writing and the story is just that easy to get lost in. I love Jessica and can relate to her as I was a single mother myself. The fear and heartache she felt in dealing with her son's change into adolescence brought back memories and I wanted to cry along with her.

The mystery that tagged along with Martin was unexpected and I really enjoyed that part of the story as that is what kept me intrigued. I thought I had it figured out but alas I was mistaken (but I'm ok with that!). I could see this easily being a day at the beach read and wholeheartedly recommend.

I received this book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review. All opinions expressed herein are mine and mine alone.
