description: Rise - The redemption story of a rock star going straight(er) through the love of a good(ish) woman. Acclaimed literary biographer Elizabeth Winston writes about long-dead heroes. So bad-boy rock icon Zander Freedman couldnt possibly tempt her to write his memoir. Except the man is a mass of fascinating contradictionsmanipulative honest gifted charismatic and morally ambiguous. In short everything she seeks in a biography subject. When in her life will she get another chance to work with a living legend? But saying yes to one temptation soon leads to another. Suddenly shes having heated fantasies about her subject fantasies this blue-eyed devil is only too willing to stoke. She thought self-control was in her DNA; after all she grew up a ministers daughter. She thought wrong. Rock star Zander Freedman has been an outliermany would say an outcastfor most of his life. But theres no disaster he cant overcome from the breakup of his band to the inevitable damage to his reputation. His Resurrection Tour is shaping up to be his greatest triumphif his golden voice holds out. Contracting a respected biographer is simply about creating more buzz. Elizabeths integrity is the key to consolidating his legacy as one of rocks greats. All the damn woman has to do is write down what he tells her. Not force him to think. Or encourage the good guy struggling to get out. And certainly not make him fall in love for the first time in his life. Turns out he is scared of something: being known.
