About this listen

'So much fun! Portia Macintosh doesn’t shy away from the gritty realities of the rockstar life, yet she still makes you want to be a part of it' Reader review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

'Couldn't put this down' Reader review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Off the Record is the prequel novella to million copy bestseller Portia MacIntosh’s Love on Tour.

Being best friends with a mega-star has its perks, and music journalist Nicole Wilde takes full advantage of them.

But it also has its responsibilities. When lead singer Dylan King disappears the night before a charity gig, it’s up to Nicole to track him down.

Half a dozen groupies, a haunted hotel, a tattoo parlour, a reality show runner-up and a crazy bed-hopping, sleepless night later – will she find him before the tour bus leaves town? And when she does, is it time to head home? Or to jump on the tour bus and go along for the ride?
