Book Description

At nearly thirty, Audrey is stumbling through her own life. When she posts on Facebook her frustration at being laid-off, a long-lost childhood friend offers her a gig to photograph his wannabe rock band on tour. Her Brazilian mother believes it’s fate; Audrey believes it’s the power of DSL.

Inside a rundown Winnebago with the all-male band, her cynicism is only matched by her fear of being taken for a groupie. Despite her own resistance, she falls for the one member who keeps her at a distance. Then John writes a song that reveals his pent-up emotions for her and propels the band to instant stardom.

Audrey must choose between working with the band or pursuing her own accomplishments, a decision that creates room for the complications of fame to creep in between her and John. Despite their connection, they find themselves facing jealousy, betrayal, and a gut-wrenching sorrow that could unravel their relationship.

Sensuality Level: Behind closed doors

Have you ever heard a writer say, “Oh, I've written all my life.” And you think, "Gosh, another one of those." Denyse Cohen is another one of those. Bilingual in Portuguese and English, Denyse works as a freelance graphic designer and enjoys the occasional adventure just like her heroine. One Hit Wonder is her first novel.

4.0 out of 5 stars One Hit Wonder June 4, 2012
Format:Kindle Edition
I was able to read an ARC of One Hit Wonder. Musicians intrigue me. Always have ~ I wonder what they're thinking on stage. It's no secret what John in One Hit Wonder is thinking - he's thinking about band photographer Audrey. The only problem? Audrey has her own dream and being a groupie or following John's band around isn't it. Denyse Cohen's debut will have you rooting for Audrey not just to get her man, but to find her own way.
Filled with twists and turns (and a happily ever after), One Hit Wonder is destined to be one of many hits for Denyse Cohen.

4.0 out of 5 stars When a love song goes viral July 14, 2012
Format:Kindle Edition
Success doesn't come cheap. One Hit Wonder follows a small time band on their journey from obscurity to instant celebrity and demonstrates the downside of being catapulted at your dream before you can even catch your breath. The irony is that the bonds they formed along the way are frayed and the deeply personal love ballad written by the band's leader for the woman he loves threatens the very relationship he celebrated in song. This is a moving story and you find yourself pulling for the characters to overcome their fame before it crushes them. You'll appreciate the romantic ending.

Note: I was provided an ARC for review as a professional courtesy. No monetary or other compensation was involved.

5.0 out of 5 stars Love it! August 23, 2012
By Elsie B
Format:Kindle Edition
Set in the difficult world of the music business, One Hit Wonder is a finely woven plot of a group of friends striving to realise their dream of making it in the music business and finding love along the way. The appropriately titled novel is a romance story laced with love, loss and finally finding ones' self and each other.
The heroin, Audrey is a typical young woman muddling through life, hoping to find her path. Cynical about love, her attraction to John came as a surprise and so did the love that followed. But as the saying goes, true love's course never runs smoothly and neither did that of Audrey and John. But like all true romance novels, the force of jealousy and the devastation of death could not keep the lovers apart in the end.
Densye's writing is witty, relatable and laced with humour. Not every writer can deliver all three in one book but she does this beautifully. Whether it's describing the band's run down Winnebago, aka tour bus or comparing Audrey's complicated love life to that of tangled Rastafarian's hair, she'll have you grinning every time you turn a page.
One hit wonder is a strong love story, we knew from the minute they met and the first spark went off that Audrey and John would end up together. It is the journey Densye takes us on before we get to that destination which is intriguing and makes this book worthy of your time.
