Book Review! Introducing Julie Cannon and TWANG

Julie Cannon, a fellow Abingdon Press author, releases her novel, Twang, this month. Julie is Southern through-and-through, a fabulous writer. Her novel will appeal to anyone who’s ever sung into the hairbrush or fantasized of hitting the big time. Julie’s a veteran writer who’s making a splash in the inspirational market too. If you love books set in the South, country music or strong lead characters, you won’t want to miss this one!
Twenty-three-year-old Jennifer Clodfelter believes she is destined to be a country music star. When her passion, determination and homemade demo tape were rejected by every music label in Nashville, she refused to give up. In just three years, a combination of guts and raw talent have propelled her on a journey of fame beyond her best dream.

Now Jennifer has all she ever wanted, only to discover that there is a dark side to the glitz and number one hits. She will have to decide whether to sing her pain to a loving audience or find the courage to face the music in the private studio of her heart.
