More Than Famous, (Hardcover)

<b>A gripping novel about the whirlwind rise and fall of the 1970s' hottest folk rock golden couple and the mystery behind the breakup their millions of fans still mourn--from the <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>Lilac Girls</i>.</b> <p>Henry Blake and Liv Nash have it all--their songs are anthems for a generation, their love story the stuff of legend, until it all comes crashing down. Their story has never been told...until now. </p><p>The Blakes are the First Family of 1970s folk rock: Henry, Pru, and Graham, who've summered on Martha's Vineyard since they were kids--all musical, wildly talented, and a little bit mad. The youngest, Henry, is special from the start, building a loyal following playing folk and blues in high school gyms. </p><p>Liv Nash has been through the worst and come out the other side singing. She and her sister perform around the island, a sweet-voiced folk duo. After loving Henry since she was a teen, Liv marries him, and ignites their wild, meteoric rise to stardom. But fame has a price: relentless touring and partying, the unbridled rock and roll scene of Laurel Canyon and Greenwich Village, the glare of Hollywood, all threaten to destroy everything they've built. </p><p>Decades later, LA podcaster Jessie West sets out to uncover the truth behind Henry and Liv's notorious split. What she finds is a hidden history of love, betrayal, sacrifice, and survival--an untold saga that could finally rewrite rock-and-roll history and change her own life in the process. </p><p>A sweeping tale of music, heartbreak, and redemption, <i>More Than Famous</i> is for anyone who has ever wondered what it really costs to live the dream.</p>
