Daisy and Billy cross paths when a producer realizes that the key to supercharged success is to put the two together. What happens next will become the stuff of legend. In the book, this scene makes it clear clear that Daisy scares Billy — not because he's tempted to cheat on his wife, but because he's tempted to relapse. In the book, this kiss never happens. Instead, Daisy leans in while she and Billy are writing a song together, but Billy turns her down.

They were angled in, and there was so much... the negative space between them felt... alive somehow," the photographer recounts. "There was so much purpose behind the not touching, right?" Their sound defined an era. Their albums were on every turntable. They played sold-out arenas from coast to coast.

The making of that legend is chronicled in this riveting and unforgettable novel, written as an oral history of one of the biggest bands of the seventies. Taylor Jenkins Reid is a talented writer who takes her work to a new level with Daisy Jones & The Six, brilliantly capturing a place and time in an utterly distinctive voice.
