Nicholas Von Miere IV is constantly stuck in the past. In 1985, he was living on Sunset Strip, partying and rocking out from the time he woke up until he went to bed (which was a rare occasion). For years, his life was a glitter-soaked hot mess of sex, drugs, and rock n' roll. Nearly thirty years later, very little has changed. Nicholas is still obsessed with the music of his youth. He is still morally bankrupt, has a terrible drug and alcohol problem, a caustic tongue, an out-of-control libido, and sprays his hair until it adds inches to his height. He has two ex-wives, an estranged son, snobbish, hotel-owning parents who are constantly threatening to disown him, a fiancée he doesn't want to marry, a vindictive cousin, a train-wreck best friend, and problems that don't end there. He is now one of London's top fashion designers (specializing in rock star leather), but his hedonistic lifestyle is a constant battlefield. Then one night, Nicholas meets a young singer and instantly becomes obsessed with her. As he rocks her to the top of his fashion design empire, he starts to wonder if she is really the answer to his problems, or is she the problem who will take him down once and for all? Entwined is the diary of an unfaithful housewife/disco queen, who cheats on her husband with her caddish, ladies' man hairdresser, while her husband cheats on her with the bottle. The connection between her diary and Nicholas's life is unknown until the very end, and will ultimately lead to her downfall. Magic Gardens, Green Fairies, and '80s Glam Metal is a hard-rockin', high-caliber thrill ride that will make you wish you had never stopped spraying and teasing your hair!
