Synopsis

PRELUDE TO A KISS

A brilliant pianist and notorious rake, Sebastian Hall indulges his passion for music and women with equal aplomb. But now that his elder brother has married, his father insists he pursue a more respectable path and find a suitable wife.

MUSIC TO HER EARS

As a girl, Clara Whitmore quietly loved her piano teacher from afar. Yet her youthful crush cannot compare to the powerful desire she feels when she unexpectedly meets Sebastian again. Perhaps the man who once dominated her dreams could be the husband she has hoped for--and save her from the fate she most fears...

LOVE STRIKES A CHORD

Risking scandal, ruin, and their own reputations, Sebastian and Clara enter into a marriage of convenience. But the pair soon discovers that their undeniable attraction is anything but convenient. Swept up in a crescendo of desire, Sebastian and Clara take each other to new heights of ecstasy--until secrets from the past threaten to doom the duet forever. Now Sebastian will have to change his tune-and prove his love is true.

From Booklist:

In the second of the Daring Hearts series, Rowan features Clara Whitmore, a widow fighting to regain custody of her young son. Sebastian Hall sees her at her uncle’s automaton museum when he seeks plans for a coding machine. She remembers studying piano with him when she was a teen and now feels that he is the man to help her. She proposes marriage. His music career is then derailed by a hand injury and botched surgery, which he is keeping secret from his demanding father. Clara and Sebastian find strength and passion in each other in Rowan’s lovely, well-written historical romance featuring appealing major and minor characters. The first title in the series, A Study in Seduction (2012), featured an older brother, and more siblings will no doubt continue to appear. Readers who enjoy Alexandra Hawkins and Grace Burrowes will enjoy this evocative, romantic reading experience. --Amy Alessio
