The Road to You

De: Alecia Whitaker

Narrado por: Alecia Whitaker

Bright lights...screaming fans...cute roadies...country music sensation Bird Barrett has officially arrived.
Next up on the road to stardom, Bird's heading out on tour. Between opening for one of the biggest acts in country music and meeting a passionate young photographer who's working as part of the backstage crew, the weeks pass by in an exciting blur. It might even be enough to distract Bird from the way things ended--or never quite started--with Adam Dean.

When the tour wraps, though, it's back to reality. The label is eager for a new hit song, but the sudden fame, complete with a media-fueled rivalry with another country music starlet, has Bird questioning her priorities. Before she can pour her heart into her music, she'll need to figure out where it truly lies.

Filled with sweet country music spirit, Wildflower is a series you just can't get out of your head.

Reseñas de la Crítica

Praise for Wildflower:"Whitaker's novel Wildflower is pitch perfect and bursting with soul and heart."—Gwendolyn Heasley, author of Where I Belong and Don't Call Me Baby

"Authentic, romantic, and entertaining--Wildflower and Bird will make you fly."—Rebecca Serle, author of The Edge of Falling

"Wildflower's Bird Barrett is a country music star you won't soon forget."—Jen Calonita, author of the Secrets of My Hollywood Life series and Summer State of Mind

Whitaker (The Queen of Kentucky) has a knack for evoking the feel of a live performance-both the atmosphere of the venue and what it's like to play on stage. She's created a winning protagonist in Bird and given her a life that's unusual, a fascinating career, plenty of struggles to overcome, and a comforting and supportive family, even when they disagree. Fans of shows like Nashville will fly through this like Bird on her fiddle.—Publishers Weekly

"What separates this novel from others featuring teenage superstars is how grounded Bird is, even as she struggles to process the dramatic changes taking place in her life... Genuine dialogue, a quick pace and a plot that strikes the right balance between realistic and fantastic make for an engaging read... This tender introduction to a newly minted country superstar sets the stage for a compelling series."—Kirkus Reviews

"Fans of country music will enjoy the contemporary references to well-known stars, and aspiring musicians will appreciate the detailed plotlines involving Bird's work in crafting music and song lyrics... Instant success isn't always this easy, but Wildflower gives the reader a satisfying novel with a cast of characters who are all worthy of making it to the top of the charts."—SLJ

cute but did not live up to first

This book was cute but the first was so much better. hopefully the last will live up to first

Typical Sequel

Typical, in that it's a shadow of the first book, Wildflower. It started off pretty good, but for much of the middle of this one the 30 second advance was a life saver. In her effort to change things up she introduced new characters, but then did a lousy job of developing them. Yes it might have seemed lame to have stayed with the same cast as the first book, to write Wildflower 2 so to speak, but they at least seemed real. I'd hoped there was a book 3, a possible recovery, but at this point it doesn't seem likely.
