Register at Lake Forest Book Store 847-234-4420 Leeba doesn't exactly fit in, but her passion for music is not lost on her neighbor, Leonard Chess, who offers her a job at his new record company. What begins as answering phones and filing becomes much more as Leeba comes into her own as a songwriter and befriends performers like Muddy Waters, Howlin Wolf, Chuck Berry and Etta James. But she also finds love with a black blues guitarist named Red Dupree. Leeba and Red soon find themselves in the middle of the Civil Rights Movement and they discover that, in times of struggle, music can bring people together. Renee Rosen is the bestselling author of "White Collar Girl", "What the Lady Wants", "Dollface", and "Every Crooked Pot". She lives in Chicago.
