Between The Notes | M. Jackson ★

In 1982, Vivienne Blackwood is a talented but overlooked guitarist, playing in a rundown Los Angeles pub just to get by. One night, Quincy Jones hears her play-and suddenly, the life she thought she'd never have is within reach.

What begins with Thriller becomes something much bigger. As Vivienne works alongside Michael Jackson, she slowly finds herself becoming part of his world: the studio, the stages, the tours, the fame.

She never expected to become famous herself. She certainly never expected to become so important to him.

But when friendship begins to blur into something neither of them can ignore, keeping it hidden becomes harder than falling in love.

Because some things are easier to keep private when the whole world isn't watching.
