February 1, 2014
Even though Roxanne, Veronica, and Alisha are as different as three sisters can be, their combined talents shine in the pop-gospel group their parents, Rocky and Delilah, helped them form. Although Rocky's death affected his wife and daughters deeply, Delilah's eye for business has brought new success. When they find out that Delilah's Daughters has made it to the final round of a popular singing competition, they can't imagine how quickly the entire family's lives will turn upside down. A solo contract from a prestigious record label threatens to break up the group, and when new paramours and old lovers enter the equation, Delilah and her daughters have to figure out if the cost of success is truly worth the price. This sweetly tender story of one family's attempt to navigate the rocky waters of stardom focuses on the importance of loyalty, sacrifice, and second chances. Benson's intimate knowledge of the music industry is evident, and her charming, inspirational novel will appeal both to fans of Martha Southgate and loyal Behind the Music viewers.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2014, American Library Association.)
