Sweet Emotions [Paperback]

Jan Bornstein (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: October 3, 2007

In Beyond Beautiful, volume one of The Song Trilogy, rock stars Jenna Bradford and Scott Tenny managed to find love-perhaps the truest love either had ever experienced-in spite of the chaos of the worlds in which they lived. Hardly youngsters, these two arrived at the doors of love with complicated pasts and emotional baggage that would leave the sturdiest Cupid staggering. Through a year filled with more loss and grief than most face in a lifetime, these two titans of music prospered, grew close and closer yet. As they mingled their voices, to the wild delight of their fans, they began to build something new and strong from the strengths they both possessed. And when we left them at the lake, autumn's radiance bringing to a close a summer of mending and new memories, a life they had both created was just making its tiny presence known . . . Rejoin Jenna and Scott as their frenzied lives careen off in new and equally unexpected directions, as they continue their struggle to attain a life and happiness together each so richly deserves, one where bitter, difficult truths can be eclipsed by Sweet Emotions.

Having overcome the initial challenges to their burgeoning union, Scott and Jenna's relationship is stronger than ever. In addition, their individual music careers are soaring, further adding to the blissful stage that they've reached in their lives. Both talented rockers appear to be at the absolute peak of their creative powers, and the intermingling of their personal and professional lives has bolstered their ongoing efforts to succeed in the ever-evolving entertainment industry.

However, as anyone who has lived long enough knows, for every up, there's a down, and life is just a perpetual journey through alternating peaks and valleys. For the highs that Jenna and Scott have achieved, there soon emerge the inevitable lows that they must trudge their way through. The ultimate test for them - both individually and together - lies in just how long their trademark tenacity can bolster them as they remain committed to each other in the face of all the internal and external temptations threatening to pull them apart.

The second installment in the Song Trilogy, in Sweet Emotions author Jan Bornstein doesn't miss a beat in picking up right where she left off. Wiser and more seasoned as a result of their previous experiences, Jenna and Scott are better prepared to handle the various personal and professional adversities that come their way; however, just as they've enhanced their individual and collective strength, the challenges that they face are even stronger and more sophisticated, forcing the couple to depend on each other all the more for the support, understanding, and guidance that they need.

Further adding to the appeal of Bornstein's tale is her meticulous crafting of Jenna, Scott, and all the other characters of the narrative. By framing them as holistic, three-dimensional beings - and not shallow caricatures - she allows the reader the opportunity to experience the full range of the lover's emotions as if they were their own - and they oftentimes are.

Fans of the romance genre are guaranteed to enjoy Sweet Emotions, but the book will be no less appealing to readers who appreciate realistic stories of the various trials and tribulations that we all face in life.
