Okay, so here's a new story from me called Dedication...now the thing with this story, is that it's based off an actual book called Dedication by Emma McLaughlin and Nicola Kraus. It's my favorite book and as I read it, realized it would be perfect as a Jommy story. I do not own any rights to Instant Star nor the book, but I have switched some names around and characters. It's a lot like the book, however, I have changed some dialogue and other things around throughout the story, the ending is also different, so if you've read the book, don't expect the same ending!
Things you need to know: Sadie is NOT Jude's sister, but her best friend. Tommy is Jude's age. Jude is a producer at 30, never was a rockstar... They all went to school together, other characters will play out as the story goes, heres the summary:
Jude
Harrison's ex-boyfriend's face plasters the newsstands and TV, the
Internet, and the multiplex. Tommy Quincy is one of the biggest
recording stars on the planet...and every song he's famous for is
about Jude. For over a decade his soundtrack has chased her--from the
gym to the supermarket, from teh dentist's office to the bars. Now 30
yr old Jude gets the call that Tommy has finally landed back in their
Ontario hometown of Toronto for an MTV special. The moment she has
been waiting for has arrived.
On the eve of their prom, Tommy
Quincy vanished, resurfacing when his song "Losing"--about
his and Jude's first sexual experience--shot to the top of the
billboard charts. And the hits kept coming, each more personal than
the one before.
Now Jude gets her chance to confront Tommy and
reclaim her past. But after eleven years of enduring protracted and
far from private heartbreak, everyone in Jude's life has a stake in
how this plays out. Jude must risk betraying the friends Tommy has
abandoned, the bandmates whose songs he plundered, and her own
parents, who fear this will dredge up a shared past more painful than
any of them want to acknowledge. But after getting the call in the
night and jumping on a plane, can she turn back now?
