THREE CHORDS AND THE TRUTHAfter a few tiring years on the road, nationally known singer Henna James takes a sabbatical and visits her dear friend, Monica. During her search for rejuvenation and inspiration for her next CD, she meets Craig, Monica's flighty, womanizing younger brother. Sparks fly between these two very different people. Henna falls harder than she cares to admit. Craig, too, is having feelings he's never experienced before; but Craig hasn't been completely honest. He has a long-distance girlfriend, Nia, who suddenly pops into town and delivers a commitment ultimatum. She is tired of their on again/off again relationship, and she is ready to be married.
Craig is torn, but ultimately his decision is made for him. Henna learns about Nia and quickly ends the affair with Craig. Seeing no hope of reconciliation with Henna, Craig proposes to Nia, but before the wedding takes place, Henna delivers some surprising information that could change everything. Now each of them has decisions to make. Is Craig ready to become responsible for the first time in his life? And if Henna decides to take him back, will she ever be able to truly forgive him? Three Chords and the Truth is about leaving emotional baggage behind, trusting the heart after being hurt, and loving outside your comfort zone. |

ReviewsThis book is great if you are on a diet because once you pick it up, you will not stop until it is over AND you will miss breakfast, lunch and dinner (depending on how fast you read)! All of the characters in the book are successful in their own way but very different but have a different approach to life. However, the story revolves around Henna, a successful singer who is forced by circumstance to make major changes in her career and her love life. This is definitely a love story but you never really know who is going to end up together or if everyone will just go their separate ways. I actually caught myself holding my breath a few times! I loved the insider peaks into a couple of controversial aspects of the music industry. I hope somebody makes a movie of this one! - Always learning - Amazon

Pleasantly surprised by this fast read!If I had to compare it to anything, 3 Chords and the Truth flows like the movie Love Jones, in book form, with a musical twist, and that's a huge compliment! From page one heroine Henna James pulls you into her journey to self re-discovery, flaws and all. So many issues the successful single woman faces are touched on, from settling vs waiting for "the one", to asserting your position in business, and the dialogue was hilarious and real. I was holding my breath and holding back tears! If you're looking for a funny, real, fast read that leaves you feeling better about life and love's possibilities, this is your book!
