The last thing rock star Harper Cushing needs right now is this attraction to her grandmother's helper, Frankie, even if she is sneaky-good on the guitar. Returning to her favorite childhood spot, Gram's nostalgic general store, Harper confronts life-altering decisions: Gram's future welfare, selling the store, and reassessing her own fast-paced "high life." If only she could pull it all off without breaking everyone's heart?including her own.

Having made her own life-altering decision three years ago, Frankie Cosgrove is guardedly single and set to harvest her first cranberry crop. She's devoted to her elderly storekeeper friend, so when the famous Harper arrives, hell-bent on making changes, Frankie's defenses rise.

At least they admit to mutual concerns for Gram and the store, and even each other's heartfelt intentions. But the unexpected musical accord they strike sounds a whole lot like falling in love. Has harmony finally found them?

A life-long Massachusetts resident, CF Frizzell ("Friz") endures the telecom industry in Boston for a living but dreams of retirement days spent writing at the seashore or in an Adirondack cabin. She grew up in community newspapers and established an award-winning twenty-two-year career that culminated in the role of founder/publisher. Friz discovered her passion for writing in high school, but credits powerhouse authors Lee Lynch, Radclyffe, and the generous family that is Bold Strokes Books for inspiration. She's into history, acoustic guitar, New England pro sports?and, most of all, her partner, Kathy, with whom she makes a home in Sandwich on Cape Cod.
