Award-winning author Denny S. Bryce and USA Today bestselling author Eliza Knight collaborate on a novel that explores the groundbreaking friendship between Ella Fitzgerald, the Queen of Jazz, and iconic movie star Marilyn Monroe. In 1952, Ella is a celebrated jazz singer facing societal challenges related to race and gender, while Marilyn is an emerging Hollywood star dealing with the pressures of fame and personal relationships. Seeking help with her singing, Marilyn turns to Ella, who initially declines as she isn’t a teacher. However, their unexpected meeting leads to a deep friendship. Despite their differences, both women share experiences of being underestimated by the men in their lives—husbands, managers, and others—while striving for professional independence and personal agency in a male-dominated era. This novel highlights their remarkable bond over a decade, illustrating how true friendship can transcend differences and provide support through heartbreak and triumph. Ultimately, it serves as a poignant reminder of the strength found in genuine connections.
