About this listen

 From award winning author and #1 New York Times bestselling writer Karen Kingsbury—known for her “signature mix of melodrama, formula, and genuine emotional punch” (Publishers Weekly)—comes an emotional and thought-provoking inspirational romance about character, compromise, and the high price of chasing dreams.

Zack Dylan has a dream. He longs to sing on the biggest stages, for the largest crowds, and he’ll do whatever it takes to make it come true. But Zack also made a promise to his college sweetheart when he left Kentucky to compete in a nationally televised singing competition drama: If he succeeded, he wouldn’t let fame and faith collide or change who he was.

Overnight, Zack becomes the country’s most popular contestant—a rising star in the vein of a young Tim McGraw—embodying the allure of a country music heartthrob. But fame pressures him to compromise and silence his beliefs. As he nears victory, his moral choices bring him to the edge of ruin. Meanwhile, a former reality TV winner confronts her own loss and questions her journey. Can she guide Zack toward personal redemption and help him understand the true cost of stardom?

With piercing insight and emotional depth, Fifteen Minutes is a celebrity culture critique and a powerful spiritual journey about second chances and holding fast to your values amid the spotlight. Christian Fiction Christianity Fiction Genre Fiction Romance Celebrity

I always enjoy Karen Kingsbury's work. I struggled to continue listening to this one because the main character frustrated me with his wrong choices. But finally there is a twist in the story and the ending is beautiful. I love how Kingsbury portrays the way God works. I suppose I struggled to see Zach fail because it reminds me so much of myself. We all fall into sin some time or another. This book was a lovely reminder of how important it is to keep your eyes fixed on God.

The ending is worth it
