From the #1 *New York Times* bestselling author Karen Kingsbury, known for her "signature mix of melodrama, formula, and genuine emotional punch" (*Publishers Weekly*), a dramatic story about character, compromise, and the cost of having it all.
Zack Dylan has a dream. He wants to sing on the biggest stages, for the biggest 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 on the popular TV show *Fifteen Minutes*: If he made it, nothing would change him or his faith in God.
Overnight, Zack becomes the nation's most popular contestant, a country singer comparable to a young Tim McGraw. As his star rises, Zack is often asked to compromise and quiet his beliefs. Just as he's on the verge of winning it all, his choices lead him to the brink of personal disaster. Meanwhile, a former *Fifteen Minutes* winner is searching for meaning amidst her own private losses. Can she warn Zack about the real price of fame? Or will Zack lose everything he loves for his fifteen minutes of glory?
From America's favorite inspirational novelist, *Fifteen Minutes* explores the cost of fame and celebrity set against the backdrop of America's favorite singing competition.

I normally find Karen Kingsbury's novels uplifting and inspiring, but '15 Minutes' felt depressing. I'm sure it is accurate in its portrayal of the temptations and compromises that come with fame, but I felt it hard to enjoy this novel.

Good read
How often do you think you can stand strong and resist temptation, only to find weakness during the event?(Romans 7:14-25)\\r\\nThis book, which was almost a 'can't put down book', is an example of the weakness of mankind when faced with the pressures of the world, even though the resolve was to be strong!
