In the early '90s, Scarlet, a painter and high fashion model, finds
herself working in some of the world's most famous fashion capitals. As
her adventure continues, she meets Johnny of The Westies, an
up-and-coming band on the cusp of superstardom. What ensues is an
unhinged ride of a novel following the audacious lead female protagonist
as she navigates her life through fame, addiction, infidelity, and all
the ups and downs of dating a legendary musician from one of the biggest
rock bands in history.
A riveting and heartfelt journey of figuring out one's own path and
championing that aspect to finding their dreams. Rich in spirit and
relatable for all those who have ever had the courage to chase their
dreams and pursue an unconventional path in this glorious world. A
pause-resister, frequently injected with laugh-out-loud humor, this is a
front-row-seat-of-fun debut that is being heralded as the earnest
generation of authenticity of a '90s voyage. Susan Holmes McKagan shines
in The Velvet Rose.
