NOTES

Scott Bailey is a burned-out lawyer in a midlife crisis who wants to become… 'THE SINGER.' When he convinces his family to relocate to the mountains, he embarks on a life-changing musical journey of easy listening acoustical music. At first, his family loves the change of pace and enjoys their newfound peace, happiness, and family closeness in their lifestyle. But then while singing in a nightclub, Scott meets Christy and they become friends. When their friendship evolves into adultery, things get messy with their marriage seemingly headed for divorce. A story like no other, this novel tells a tale of forgiveness, healing, and restoration of the human spirit. Dive into this story today and follow along with a lawyer who changes everything in life to become a singer. Filled with plenty of practical and spiritual lessons, coupled with substantial humor, this is a great story for all age groups. This includes teens because Megan, The Singer's teen daughter, plays a vital role in confronting her dad's hypocrisy and adultery while he urges her to remain chaste. This book is unique in that it comes with a 12 song music soundtrack that follows the storyline of the book, adding to the emotional and personal impact of the story. The songs are composed and sung by the author. The lyrics of the songs can be read, and also listened to being sung. Three lines from a popular modern song show why a book with a music soundtrack that follows the storyline of the book is a great idea: "Music speaks louder than words It's the only thing the whole world listens to When you sing, people understand." This presentation creates a one-of-a-kind book that truly connects with the heart. PERSONALLY SPEAKING: Roger Himes and his wife Eileen reside in what singer John Denver calls 'Colorado Rocky Mountain High' -- the state of Colorado, USA. This was after relocation from Houston, Texas many years ago. This was after Roger grew up in Minneapolis and Hibbing Minnesota -- Oakland, California - Salt Lake City, Utah - and Butte, Montana, as he followed his dad and mom around as their job transferred them. Roger and Eileen have two grown daughters, Lisa and Shawn, and four grandkids. They owned a wedding venue in the mountains of Colorado for years. Roger liked saying, "I used to get people divorced. Now I get them married. It's a much better deal, and I know God likes it better too." Now they own a lodge, Mountain Peaks Inn, Hill City, South Dakota USA, which is close to Mount Rushmore. Roger built his law practice singing in nightclubs at night and passing out business cards at the breaks. What better place to meet people who need an attorney, right? Newspapers must have thought a lawyer singing in bars was newsworthy. They wrote articles about him: "The Singing Attorney" and "The Court Jester." He composes and sings the songs in this book. In addition to songs, he writes spiritual and inspirational books that are free on his site mentioned in the book. He enjoys playing the guitar and singing and reading books, especially on the subject of the gospel, which is also what he mostly writes about. He likes lots of outdoor activities in Colorado
