For fans of Rhythm's Blues by Kimberly Brown, Into the Spotlight is a soulful, unforgettable romance where grief finds its melody, and love takes center stage.
Trinity Raya Walker has music in her blood and heartbreak in her past. At nineteen, she's the newest name lighting up the R&B charts. Her lyrics are raw, her sound electric, but her soul is still mourning the brother she lost too soon. Every song she writes is a confession, and every stage she steps on brings her closer to healing . . . or breaking. Keith Harris used to be next in line for fame, until life hit him with a loss he couldn't sing his way through. Now, he's working security gigs just to get by, watching his dream slip further out of reach. When Trinity and Keith lock eyes, there's something familiar there--like recognizing a scar you can't see yet know too well. In an industry built on image and illusion, love doesn't come easy. As fame pushes them apart and buried truths rise to the surface, the price of success might be the one thing their hearts can't afford to pay.Author Biography
