A Reimagining of "Jane Eyre" with a British Invasion-era twist.
Mad love. Love gone wrong. A second chance at love. Love gone wrong again.
'70s rock star Eddie Rochester thought he'd met his soul mate in the passionate Roberta Mason, who inspired him to write a best-selling album of love songs. But Roberta's beauty masked a dark secret that would haunt Eddie for years to come.
Jenny Ayr, the free-spirited daughter of hippies, seemed an unlikely muse to rekindle Eddie's passion for life. But as Eddie fell more deeply in love with the innocent Jenny, his own dark secret threatened to keep him from finding true happiness at last.
This rock-and-roll remix of Jane Eyre retells one of England's most famous tales with a British-invasion-era twist, combining classic rock with classic literature to create an unforgettable mash-up of a love story that will make your heart sing.

"A Great Summer Read"
Looking for a great summer read? I loved "Mr. R: A Rock & Roll Romance" by Tracy Neis ... This modern retelling [of "Jane Eyre"] surprised and delighted me ... I liked that in this version of the story, the mad wife is someone we come to care about, and who is worthy of Mr. R's love ... For me, I know a book is great when I don't want it to end, and can't stop thinking about it after I've finished. That's what happened when I read "Mr. R." Thank you, Tracy Neis, for giving me such a memorable reading experience, and for giving Mr. R a well-deserved second chance at love.

What I really liked was how the characters were re-imagined as products of the time in which "Mr. R" is set (it spans the 1970s and 80s) ...The novel sticks fairly close to the original, and yet there are some fantastic new additions in there ... "Mr. R" kept me entertained; I'd certainly recommend this one to Brontėites.
