Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Multi-platinum R&B singer Journey has fulfilled her lifelong dream as a singing sensation, but it isnt long before she realizes that life in the limelight is not all its cracked up to be. She must endure the unreasonable physical and emotional demands of the “glamorous” life as a superstar, while silently battling her private demons, and she dare not give up that life or face her abusive husband's wrath.  However, when her career finally becomes more than she can handle, Journey escapes by fleeing to Paris where she inadvertently falls into the arms of a man who not only doesnt know shes famous, but offers her a different life than shes ever known, a world away from everything that she can no longer endure.  Her fame eventually finds her, and after being stalked by paparazzi, Journey decides to return to the life she left in America and face the music with her husband, Christopher and her faltering career.  Things are not as easy to fix as she had hoped, and a life-altering accident changes Journey and everyone around her forever.

Review:

"In Denine's (Whatever Gets You Through the Night) soulfully sweet second effort, Journey Mason, a celebrated R&B singer as beautiful and gifted as Beyoncé, has everything except what she really wants: to start a family. Journey began life as Serena Childs, but with the help of her best friend, Jada, and her husband/manager Christopher, she became a superstar. Christopher, however, proves a mean and abusive husband obsessed with her fame and fortune. Tired of his controlling and cheating ways, she escapes to Paris where she has an ultimately disappointing whirlwind courtship with a French artist. Back in New York, she's in an accident that leaves her in a coma and when she finally awakens, she's blind and learns that Christopher's used her fortune to launch another singer and broker a dangerous deal with a rap group. She must also grapple with her crack-addicted sister; her friend, Jada, who might not be totally trustworthy; and learning to believe in love again. The result is a satisfying R&B fairy tale."
