On Thursday, August 10, 2023 at 6:00PM, San Mateo County Libraries welcomes author Dominic Lim to discuss his debut novel, ALL THE RIGHT NOTES. Register at smcl.org/author talks to receive your free Zoom invitation.
In this hilarious and joyous rom com, sparks fly when a piano genius and a Hollywood heartthrob are thrown together for a charity performance of solos, heartfelt duets, and a big, show-stopping finale.
Quito Cruz might be a genius piano player and composer in New York City now, but that doesn't mean that he's any closer to his Broadway dream. Although Quito knows what the problem is. Or rather who. Because ever since that night in college--with pretty-boy jock Emmett Aoki--his inspiration has been completely MIA . . .
Now Quito's dad wants him to put on a charity performance in his hometown. And there's one big string attached: convince Emmett--now one of Hollywood's hottest celebrities--to perform.
It's all shaping up to be the biggest musical fiasco of Quito's life. Especially when Emmett agrees to attend, and Quito realizes that undeniable vibe between them is stronger than ever. Because there's nothing simple about falling for a movie star . . . even when he's pitch-perfect.
