Witness to a murder, concert violinist Francesca Giordano flees to Bristol, TN, and finds bluegrass singer Cooper Barstow is an even greater danger—to her heart. IN PLAIN SIGHT A concert violinist and musical prodigy, Francesca Giordano is internationally acclaimed and always in the spotlight—right where she doesn’t want to be. Not after she’s witnessed a murder. Suddenly on the run, she finds … the run, she finds her way to Bristol, Tennessee, and to the music club Acoustics. There, as “ Chessie Hope,” she can hide out in the open. But with this newest gig comes a different kind of danger. Older and impossibly sexy, bluegrass singer Cooper Barstow is everything she’s ever wanted in a man, and his daughters are just as easy to love. Yet Francesca cannot enjoy the luxury of such a relationship, not even if he could protect her from the men on her trail or if she could be honest with him about who she is. Cooper is as wounded as he is strong, and he needs someone who will stay by his side for the rest of his life. Just as Francesca does. And the smoke on the mountains and the haze of desire almost make her believe that could happen.

This is the second book in the Smoky Blues series and I loved it. You have mystery, romance and bluegrass music. It is set in Tennessee which is my home state and describes it beautifully. Cooper and Chessie make beautiful music together. He might be a bit older than her but because of her background she is very mature at a young age. The fact that she is running for her life adds a little spice to the story, and of course you have Sawyer in the mix who Cooper has no use for. The entire book is an entertaining and quick read.
