Expanded Synopsis

The Blue Note is a poignant romance novel from Romance Blooming that delves into the spaces between words, glances, and years of love left unspoken. Renowned record producer Michael Finlay has spent his life nurturing the talent and dreams of others, while quietly setting aside his own heart. For decades, his world has revolved around Amanda Lane—the woman he fell in love with at university and never stopped loving.

Amanda, now a celebrated music promoter, remains bound to a lonely and unsatisfying marriage. Mick is her confidant, her collaborator, her constant—yet never her lover. His devotion lives only in restraint and silence, carried like a melody he never dares to play aloud.

Everything shifts when Darby Hughes enters their carefully balanced world. Dazzling, talented, and effortlessly charming, Darby is poised for international stardom—and Mick and Amanda are determined to help him get there. But as ambition and artistry intertwine, so too do emotions that have long been buried.

For Amanda, Darby awakens a desire that challenges loyalty, propriety, and the expectations placed upon a woman standing at the edge of middle age. For Mick, Darby represents both success and threat—a rising star who forces him to confront the truth of his unrequited love and the life he has postponed for too long.

As whispered scandals loom and forbidden lines blur, The Blue Note becomes a modern romance story about love that refuses to fade, even when time insists it should. This romantic fiction explores ageing, ambition, devotion, and the bravery required to choose passion over safety.

Romance Blooming specialises in romance stories that honour emotional truth, and The Blue Note is no exception. It is a love story about what happens when the heart’s quietest song demands to be heard at last.
