This book was near-perfect for me. I love books about rock stars. I love well-written romances. I love books about guys who got together when they were young, got separated, and find each other again later."Forever's Now" is a wonderful combination of all of these. An award-winning documentary producer/director and an up-and-coming rock star get back together nine years after the rocker ran away for fear that his gay relationship would kill his chance at a career in rock and roll. Alex, the director, uses the excuse of making a documentary to latch on to Chance's band in the hope of getting revenge - after all, Chance's newest hit song was one that Alex had actually written when they were both 18 years old.Of course, when they're together, the sparks fly and romance is rekindled with all the normal obstacles you'd expect - a homophobic manager, fear of the fans abandoning the band, etc.Of course, it all ends in a happily-ever-after, as it should.It ain't rocket science or a cure for cancer. What "Forever's Now" is, is a rollicking good read that leaves you with a smile on your face.That's a lot to say about any book.
