Fame--something many people long for, but very few ever achieve. Millions have dreamed of being surrounded by adoring fans, touring the globe, and making the big money. But as we discover in this book, living the high life sometimes is not all it's cracked up to be. MARRIED TO A ROCK STAR chronicles the challenges and successes of Shemane Nugent, the woman married to one of rock 'n' roll's most legendary guitarists, Ted Nugent.
Throughout their relationship, they have had to deal with the hardships that go hand in hand with being famous. Shemane Nugent presents the truth about the unique conflicts that celebrity couples face, and what really threatens to tear apart the bonds that unite them.
MARRIED TO A ROCK STAR will enlighten you about what takes place behind the scenes of a rock star's mythical life, both on and off the stage. Unlike other celebrity marriages, this couple has managed to persevere. Partly because of the challenges they've had to overcome along the way, their affection for each other has been renewed and strengthened. This book details how a rock 'n' roll wife has managed to stay sane, while still blissfully wrapped in the arms of her man.

The writing is okay, but her heart is in the right place. She is trying to get across a message about marriage that applies to everyone, not just rock star wives. Interesting life she leads!

Heartfelt story of Shemane's and Ted's story. Sounds like she is more into the relationship than Ted is, as he had no qualms allowing women to sit on his lap and hug him as he flirted with them. What a slap in the face to his wife!
I was very sad for her for what it did to her and her son when he was unfaithful.
I read that she filed for divorce in 2017. He would be a hard one to live with.

I really hoped for more from this book. It's an interesting perspective, but Mrs. Nugent spent the entire book justifying her husband's infidelity and explaining why she forgave him. And it was very disorganized. She tried, but she really could have used an editor.

Interesting story about the trials of being married to a different kind of rock star!
