Tara Russell started her singing career as a member of a trio with her sisters, as her music career blossomed the trio disbanded. Tara sacrificed family, friends and love to become a mega star. She lives with the cost for years and has decided to make amends. A ten year old secret she's harbored may be more difficult to correct than she first believed. The only friend she has is Quinton Ellis, a successful music producer, whom she collaborates with frequently. With his continuous support, she begins making amends. She soon realizes that Quinton may have been her ultimate sacrifice.

BLUE INTERLUDE is the debut romance by Keisha Mennefee. It's a love story of how your true love may be in front of you all along. Even though Ms. Mennefee delivered a romantic and suspenseful plot, about halfway through the plot became dull and predictable, because of this I struggled to finish reading.

I enjoyed Tara and Quinton's story. I liked that they were "friends first" and that even as self-involved as these two were, that they were (pretty much) there for each other despite all of the issues they were dealing with. I would have liked a little more detail on a couple of characters but, overall - a pretty good read.

I really enjoyed this story. This was a refreshing tale of what people give up for fame and fortune. This story shows you money truly cannot buy happiness. Tara, the lead character in the story is forced into the limelight by her father. Originally in a group with her stepsisters, her father made her go solo. Trying to please her father and make a living for her sisters, Tara gives up too much of herself and a child. Forced to make life decisions based on family betrayal, Tara goes on hiatus to find the son she gave up. Along the way, she learns humility, forgiveness and finds love. Q, her best friend and love interest in the story the perfect flawed hero. I found myself really drawn to him. This is an awesome first book for this author. I will be looking for her future work.

This is the first book that I have read of this author's but it won't be my last. The storyline was great and reminds you that just because a person has money and fame does not mean that they are happy. Tara Russell has been through a lot in her young life and finds out some secrets that her family mainly her father did not tell her before he died. The close relationship that she had with her sisters is shattered in the process because of jealousy and greed. A very touching story and I enjoyed it from the first page until the last.
