Hip, Sexy Novel Gives Insider's Look at the Music Industry
Hartford, Conn. (PRWEB) August 30, 2007 -- How Far Would You Go? by music world veteran Irene Melo follows a young Hispanic woman in her search for happiness in and out of the music business.
How far must anyone go to follow his or her dream? That's the choice a young Hispanic woman named Jazzman must make as she works to be a music sensation and follow her heart. Struggling to make sense of her life after her mother's death, Jazzman finds comfort in spirituality, even as her heart beats for the Jamaican artist, Afrique. After a torrid one night stand, Jazzman thinks there is a real connection. But is there? Or is her soul mate destined to be her best friend Tyson?
Beautifully written and warmly told, How Far Would You Go? explores life, death, love and lust with equal passion and intelligence. Melo, who worked in the music industry for many years, gives readers a "you-are-there" perspective. This is a wonderful book for anyone interested in what really goes on in both the entertainment business and the human heart.
