Description:
Marlene Parker thought she met her soul mate at eighteen but when he left her pregnant and alone to pursue a life of rock n roll, she vowed to never love again. Now four years later, she is being offered the dream of a lifetime. Moving to France with her daughter to start anew. There is only one problem. Marlene’s formative ex is back in town, and his pull is strong as ever.
Luke Anderson has everything a man could want. Fame, fortune and enough beautiful women to last him a lifetime. That is until a young runaway shows him what is truly important. Family. A word in which plagues Luke with regret. As a scared twenty two year old he ran away from the love of his life and their unborn child. Now ready to reverse his biggest regret with only three days to do it, Luke’s fate hangs in the balance. The question is, will he be able to convince Marlene their love story deserves a second chance?
Inspiration Behind Book
The idea for “Love of a Rockstar came to me out of the blue. After writing my first novel that had paranormal undertones, I wanted to break into a new genre. Since I am a huge fan of author’s like Lisa Kleypas, my mind immediately went to Contemporary Romance. Since I was dating a musician at the time, he inspired the plot line. Although our love story was nothing like Marlene and Luke’s, my imagination took control and I started to write. That was almost six months ago. I took a “write by the seat of your pants” approach, which in the end worked out for the best. I truly feel as if the character’s guided me through the novel and let me tell their love story for the world to hear.
Character Interview
Thank you so much for joining me Luke! Tell me where you do find inspiration for your music.
Hi, thanks for having me. I find inspiration in everyday moments like two people falling in love, a blazing sunset or the simple act of human kindness. Sounds corny but there is an endless supply of inspiration if you keep your mind and heart open.
That’s not corny at all. I like a man who is in touch with his emotions. Recently, it was revealed you have a four year old daughter named Nil. Why did you feel like you had to hide her from the public eye?
Sighs* While the life I lead is a dream come true, it does have it’s draw backs. Luckily, I am not hassled 24/7 by the media but nonetheless; I wanted to shield my daughter from the critique of the masses as long as I could. Nil is a bright little girl who is wise beyond her years. The least I could do is give her a normal life after walking out on her and her mother.
Correct me if I am wrong but it seems like that is one of your biggest regrets. How are you making up for lost time?
I can’t get back the moments I lost with my daughter. I can only build new ones so we go on a lot of adventures together. Yesterday much to Nil’s mom displeasure, we had a water fight in the backyard. We got soaking wet and ran around for hours. Seeing pure happiness on Nil’s face made my year.
That is adorable. Ok , moving on from your family life back to life as a musician. You have toured all around the world with your band. Which city or town is your favorite?
That’s a hard question to answer but I have to say hands down, Paris France. It’s impossible not to fall in love with a city that speaks to your romantic side. I’m hoping to take Nil and her mom there sometime in the near future.
If you didn’t choose the path of musician, what would you want to be?
Laughs* Music has been in my blood since I was born but my other passion is cooking. Marlene (Nil’s mom) is an amazing pastry chef. In fact, she went to Culinary School and has talent like none other. When we were younger, we dreamed about opening our own restaurant called “Norma Jeans.”
Norma Jeans? That’s an interesting name. How did you get to the point of where you are now? A famous rock n roller with a current number one hit single.
Man, you sure know to stroke a man’s ego. The road to stardom was filled with potholes and overall heartache. With no family to speak of, I turned to music as a sort of security blanket. Thank god it worked out because I have no idea where I would be if it didn’t. I met the love of my life at one of my early gigs, found band mates that have become more like brothers and have seen the world outside Seattle.
And last but not least, the question all your fans want to know the answer to. Are you currently attached or single?
A sly smile turns up Luke’s lips* I am hoping to win a certain woman over with my wit and charm. She is stubborn with a capitol A so it won’t be easy but she has my heart. Always has, always will.
