Winner of the Rose & Bay AwardA slow burn gay romance set in the 1980s. Book five of Daron's Guitar Chronicles finds the band still on the road for their coast-to-coast tour. The pressure cooker that is the tour bus has been affecting everyone, but will it ultimately fuse the band together or crack them apart? The final leg of the Moondog Three "1989" album tour approaches, with Toronto, the midwest, and New York City still to come. Daron and Ziggy have learned a lot about each other, and about what it takes to stay sane on the road... but have the lessons come too late? Daron thinks maybe he finally knows what love is. At least, some feeling is making his heart sing. But is Ziggy too far gone to hear it? Readers speak "This volume is beautiful and sweet and touching and so, so heartbreaking." "This series is an emotional roller coaster ride, as told in the first person by Daron, a guitar prodigy and founder of the fictional band Moondog 3. (Don't tell Daron it's fictional ) This series set in the mid-80's and continuing through the early 90's (and still going) is a peek into the music scene as Hair Bands transitioned into Grunge. Rock n Roll was almost as confused as Daron is about his feeling for his lead singer, Ziggy. I loved every page of it " "Having read and enjoyed the first four volumes, I was more than ready to be a fly on the wall for the next part of Daron, Ziggy, Jonathan, Carynne, et al's, road trip. There is something very compelling about the way these books are written. Perhaps because they were written during the time period that they represent rather than as a retro attempt at capturing their era. The author has a way of making you feel that you are in the room, or perhaps, playing the guitar on stage yourself, that I have not experienced reading any other similar book. I can feel Ziggy applying my eyeliner as I experience Daron's prepping for a concert."

A slow burn gay romance exploring coming out and coming of age in the decadent world of 1980s pop culture.DARON is a young guitar player with a dream: to make it big like the guys he grew up idolizing-or at least to escape his homophobic family in new Jersey. He makes it to music school in Rhode Island, and the rock clubs of Boston beckon. But in 1986, in the era of AIDS, MTV, and "Just Say No" it's hard to succeed from the closet., especially when your lead singer is hell-bent on being outrageous.ZIGGY is an art-school dropout who knows he's destined for something bigger and better in life. He craves the spotlight, and he doesn't care how many hearts he has to break to get to the top. When he sees Daron playing guitar one day, he thinks he's found his ticket to stardom.He's right. Winner of the Rose and Bay Award for Crowdfunded Fiction "As addictive as any books I've ever read, as heart-rending as any series I've ever loved, Daron's Guitar Chronicles is, if not perfect, the quintessential compilation of music, drugs, sex, love, lust, and pain. Daron's Guitar Chronicles is a brilliant feat in fiction, far too luminous for this simple 5 star rating."-The Novel Approach"For me, Daron is one of those rare fictional characters that I have a hard time believing does not actually exist on the physical plane. He is just too real. And] the writing just gets better and better. Some chapters are moving the story along slowly, some are eye opening, and then some chapters have paragraphs or sentences that just hit you over the head with a mallet of sheer awesome."-Gay Book Reviews
