Hang On - E-book - ePub

In 1973 Holly meets and falls in love with Trevor, a roadie for a famous English rock and roll band. From that moment, Holly's dreams of marriage, children, and a happy life are finally within her grasp.  Trevor takes her with him on tour and introduces her to the circus-like backstage world of Rock and Roll. When she steps onto the band bus, she walks into a colorful, exciting adventure in a world completely different from the life that awaits her back home, where she works at a low-paying job, chases cockroaches with a shoe, and sleeps to escape the hunger.  On the bus she is almost immediately tested and forced to publicly declare what matters to her most in a partner.
Is it money, fame and looks? Or love, with none of the above?   At the same time, she worries. What is it about her that matters most to Trevor? Does he love her only for her looks? Will he still love her when he learns she suffers from a mental illness due to childhood trauma and abuse? Is her beauty enough in the long term? Or will everything else about her prove to be too much for him?  Holly is tested again when a member of the band develops feelings for her.
He is Trevor's childhood friend, often sought after because of his wealth and fame, just as Holly is sought after only for her looks. When his feelings for Holly suddenly and very publicly come to light, all three of them must grapple with what will become, not a love "triangle, " but a love "circle" that threatens to break all of their hearts.  Winner of the Living Now Book Awards Silver Medal
