Rock God

Rock God

Synopsis

In the oil-slicked town of Sweetwater, Texas, music is religion and reputation is everything.

Jayra Jenkins has neither.

Born from scandal—the illegitimate son of a murdered woman and a man who won’t claim him—Jayra spends his childhood bouncing between silence and survival. His mother’s death is whispered about in church pews and barrooms alike, tangled in rumors of mob ties and family cover-ups. Raised by Aunt Polly Walker, known locally as The Black Widow, Jayra learns that Sweetwater has two kinds of power: money and myth. And sooner or later, both come calling.

When Jayra returns from the military years later, the town barely recognizes him. He’s older, colder, and armed with only one weapon that still makes sense—his guitar. Teaming up with his charismatic but volatile stepbrother Leo Reynolds, they form a band that burns through Texas clubs with equal parts talent and chaos. Jemini, as they call themselves, becomes a storm of sound: Jayra’s precision against Leo’s showmanship, steel meeting fire.

But music doesn’t erase bloodlines. It amplifies them.

Behind every set list waits another ghost. Behind every standing ovation, another betrayal.

As Jemini climbs from dive bars to televised stardom, Jayra is forced to navigate a world built on manipulation—by producers, fans, and the Reynolds family dynasty that once disowned him. His greatest rival is also his brother; his closest ally, the woman who might break him. Tessa Taylor, sharp-tongued and fearless, sees through the armor he hides behind. Their chemistry ignites both onstage and off, sparking jealousy, scandal, and a media frenzy that threatens to consume them all.

Haunted by his mother’s murder, hunted by the truth of his father’s legacy, and cornered by the fame he never asked for, Jayra must decide what kind of man he’s going to be: the heir to a cursed name—or the kind of legend who earns his own.

At its heart, Rock God is about inheritance—the kind you can’t spend and can’t escape. It’s about the price of talent, the lure of sin, and the unholy marriage of music and myth. In Sweetwater, redemption costs more than fame, and every note comes with a scar.

When the lights go down and the crowd screams his name, Jayra Jenkins finally understands:

To become a rock god, you first have to survive being human.
