Valeria always dreamed of making a living from music, but she never imagined how chaotic, exciting, and contradictory that path would be. From small, seedy bars to stages that shake to the strains of rock and roll, this young guitarist makes her way in an industry that can be as inspiring as it is ruthless. On her journey, Valeria discovers a world as diverse as it is challenging: colleagues who become family, rivalries that bring out the best—and the worst—in her, and a music scene that vibrates with freedom but is also full of pitfalls. Between grueling tours, difficult decisions, and the constant search for authenticity, the protagonist faces the question many avoid: is it worth pursuing a dream that sometimes seems more like a neon-lit nightmare? A vibrant story about passion, identity, and the price of living rock and roll to the fullest. Because yes, being a musician can be fun... but not always.
