I'm a little late to the party, but possibly this post post will help you. If the link ever breaks, it deals with injecting BROWSER='Chrome' into your start string (per the post, 'Google Chrome' did not work for me).

As an example, for my application I had the below which always opened in IE (work computer, can't change the default browser):
"scripts": { "start": "cross-env PORT=8080 react-scripts start" }

...and I changed to:
"scripts": { "start": "cross-env PORT=8080 BROWSER='Chrome' react-scripts start" }

...and here's why BROWSER='Google Chrome' did not work for me (I'm on a Windows system).

I found this thread, in my case I was trying to run npm Start from a CLI as administrator. When I went back to a regular CLI (not administrator) it launches from Chrome, which is good enough for what I needed.
