When my daughters were young, they would sometimes fi nd it hard to go to sleep. I always made up stories for them when they went to bed to stop them from having bad dreams. I then thought that it would be great to share these stories with other children. My girls always loved the Rainbow Dreams story; it always made them relax and go to sleep with smiles on their faces. As they are now older I still say to them, Rainbow Dreams, and they know exactly what I am talking about. This helps them relax and go to sleep easily.

I'm just a small town girl from Arkansas with dreams as big as rainbows, and I knew, as soon as I saw his face on Jessie Robertson's debut CD, he was meant to be mine. I'm talking about Phillip Smith, back up singer and keyboard player extraordinaire. We came face to face in New Orleans, thanks to Callie Rhodes - you may know her better as Jessie's girl - and the rest, as they say, is history. This is book three in the Rock & Roll Girls trilogy. It's a stand alone story that intertwines with the first two books in the series, and gives a front row view of Jessie's side of his and Callie's story, as well as telling the story of Julie and Phillip. Be sure and check out book one - Jessie's Girl, for Jessie and Callie's story, and book two - Fated Love, for Lucy and Leo's story, too! #newadult #soulmates #rockstarromance #fatedlove

John Arthur Maddux writes in the introduction of his book: Read this book with an open mind. You never know what you might learn, or re-learn from a new perspective. Learning is essential to growth and if it ceases to be so, our hope for social, environmental, and political change will be thwarted, and we may find ourselves no better off than our primordial ancestors who lived in intellectual darkness and superstition.
