About the book:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"PreludeCover\"An awkward young woman. A haunted young man. A forbidden instrument. Can the love of music bring them together . . . or will it tear them apart?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Bath, England\u20141810<\/p>\n

At twenty-eight, Alethea Sutherton is past her prime for courtship; but social mores have never been her fort\u00e9. She might be a lady, but she is first and foremost a musician.<\/p>\n

In Regency England, however, the violin is considered an inappropriate instrument for a lady. Ostracized by society for her passion, Alethea practices in secret and waits for her chance to flee to the Continent, where she can play without scandal.<\/p>\n

But when a thief\u2019s interest in her violin endangers her and her family, Alethea is determined to discover the enigmatic origins of her instrument . . . with the help of the dark, brooding Lord Dommick.<\/p>\n

Scarred by war, Dommick finds solace only in playing his violin. He is persuaded to help Alethea, and discovers an entirely new yearning in his soul.<\/p>\n

Alethea finds her reluctant heart drawn to Dommick in the sweetest of duets . . . just as the thief\u2019s desperation builds to a tragic crescendo . . .<\/p>\n

What do you “hear” when a book mentions music? Do you ever look up the songs mentioned?<\/p>\n
