Book Description:
Melody Mires has
sworn off dating musicians, but when the sexy European conductor Wolf Braun
takes over her struggling symphony, her hesitation almost flies out the window
with the notes of her flute—until he opens his mouth. Wolf is arrogant,
haughty, and seems to have a personal vendetta against Melody. Oh, and he’s her
boss. If she wants to keep her job as principal flutist, she’ll have to impress
Wolf while simultaneously keeping her undeniable attraction to herself.
Wolf came to
America to get as far away from his past as possible, and to recover some of
the swagger he had as one of the world’s best maestros. He never imagined being
forced to reassess the entire orchestra’s talent—and potentially fire anyone
who doesn’t make his cut. Dating the attractive flutist is out of the question,
but as their feelings reach a fever pitch, can they risk both their careers for
a chance at love?
Two Quickie
Teasers:
"Every one
of the musicians she’d dated was the same as her: burned out from practicing to
beat the chair ahead of him, teaching five million lessons a day to make ends
meet, scrambling for gigs two hours away on the weekends, so involved in a
dying art form that he didn’t even know the Bruins were an ice hockey team."
“Why would a flute prodigy from Julliard want this little Civic Symphony seat anyway? Seems to me a girl who played the Mozart G Major concerto in front of the New York Phil at age seven could get a seat in any orchestra. Age seven. When I was seven, the only thing I was playing was pretend flute on my toothbrush.”

About the Author:
Aubrie grew up
watching the original Star Wars movies over and over until she could
recite and reenact every single scene in her backyard. She also loved The
Goonies, Star Trek the Next Generation--favorite character was Data by
far--and Indiana Jones. But, her all time favorite movie was The Last
Unicorn. She still wonders why the unicorn decided to change back to a
unicorn in the end.
Aubrie wrote in her junior high yearbook that she wanted to be "a concert flutist" when she grew up. She majored in flute performance at the University of New Hampshire on a full scholarship, then secured two teaching jobs at a University and a local community music school. While playing in orchestras and teaching, stories popped into her head, and she used them to make the music come alive for her flute students. Her students said they were so good, she had to write them down! Maybe they were right, who knows? Two careers seems to keep her busy. For now.
She is represented by Dawn Dowdle and writes sweet and adventurous fantasy, science fiction, and contemporary romance.
