Sometimes the people who hurt you the most are the ones who pledged to love you forever. Sometimes it takes someone new to help you rediscover what it’s supposed to feel like. Background Music is so dear to me. A novel of healing, rediscovery, the gentle tide pulling two people back together. A novel that follows in its poetic predecessors’ footsteps. It’s one I turn to to reread, to marvel at stories and the way they stay with us, become so vivid in our hearts and minds. Background Music is Book 2 of the Muse & Music Series. It can be read as a standalone. “You’re more than background music for someone else’s life.” Katarina Roberts wants to move on—and for the men of her past to let her. So, the shop owner keeps to herself, staying busy with the day-to-day tasks of keeping her store afloat in the heart of the Ozarks. But the sound of a knock on her bedroom window changes everything. “You never truly know how you will react to the demons in your life until you are face to face with them.” Answering that knock leads to Reese Taylor: the man who spends his nights as the lead singer of the band New Leaf, while wanting to turn over one of his own. “Take me home and take me without hesitation. Like I’m a song. Like I’ve never been a regret.” What started as an encounter becomes more of an entanglement when a sense of safety disrupts their solitude. As their relationship deepens, echoes from a violent past threaten to break down everything they’ve rebuilt.

If you know my words, then you know I infuse them with pieces of myself. Each character is a little bit of me. But Sonnet Rosewood, she is closer than almost all the rest. My snark, my wounds, my past, it all comes back to me when I think of Blind Melody. Sonnet is my ache, my shame, my hope for love when it seems out of reach, a fairytale. I didn’t write her; I let her out of my heart, let her stain the page. If you want to know me, read Blind Melody, watch Sonnet and Hunter dance. Blind Melody is Book 3 of the Muse & Music Series. It can be read as a standalone. “I’m not a song. I don’t have blue eyes like the girls you sing about. I have a blue soul.” Sonnet Rosewood needs a new chapter—the kind that doesn’t remind her of anything she’s leaving behind in the Ozarks. So, when opportunity beckons to escape to the Great Smoky Mountains for a writing retreat, she answers with a firm yes. But the arrival of a decade-old and short-lived fling at the cabin changes everything. “How quickly we push past the barriers we erected between ourselves for years.” Recognizing the beautiful voice of the unexpected guest reminds her of his name, Hunter Hart: the man she wrote as forgettable, who vowed to show her he was anything but if given a second chance. “Maybe you want the challenge more than you want the girl.” What started as Sonnet’s attempt to escape her past thrusts her straight into the responsibilities of another’s, making their future sound more and more like the sad songs they’ve been writing together. While their passion is undeniable, their happily-ever-after is not. The single father’s rules leave little room for a different kind of love. And Sonnet has rules of her own—to never again wait for a man to open his heart to her. You can read the entire Muse & Music Series for less than $4: https://books.jrrogue.com/museandmusic
