I’m beginning a new series of posts where I’ll be featuring some incredible romance authors from New Jersey, and I’m pleased to start with RoseAnn DeFranco whose latest title, THE RIGHT CHORD, kept me up late last night. (Super hot–had to finish!!)
DeFranco’s voice immediately leaps off the page. She loves to stick her characters into humorous situations as well as push them to their limits, presenting them with their greatest dreams and worst fears.
Kit, a talented musician-turned-professor, returns to her home town after falling short of fame in the music industry. Vince, her ex-boyfriend and super hot handyman, hopes to make a new life for himself and his daughter after his divorce. Kit is determined to avoid the man who once broke her heart, but when Vince turns out to be her next door neighbor, avoiding him becomes impossible. In fact, Vince cannot resist her, his rhythm matching hers beat for beat–stroke for stroke in music, in life, and in love.
I read this book first but will definitely go back to pick up the other books in the Audubon Springs Series. There are so many parts to THE RIGHT CHORD that are laugh out loud enjoyable that I am struggling now not to mention in this post because I don’t want to give them away. Check out the opening and you’ll see what I’m talking about. 🙂

I read a romance once.
If you get into it again, I’ll be posting about more hot New Jersey authors in the next couple of weeks–both contemporary and historical. 🙂
You gotta watch out for those handymen. 😉
I don’t tend to read the genre, but this one sounds good. 🙂
It is–awesome for unwinding at the end of a long day. 🙂
Hi Michelle,
Thank you for this wonderful review! I love that you “get” my humor. I’m running a $.99 sale starting Friday on the series. Just like everyone else, I’m ready to kiss this winder goodbye and spring into summer at the Jersey Shore in Audubon Springs.
RoseAnn
I’m right there with you, RoseAnn! So happy to find these steamy books to melt the snow away. 🙂
