Summary of the Book:
Introverted teacher versus unstoppable violinist. She wants to be alone. He wants her heart. Let the games begin…
After the unexpected death of her musician brother, third-grade teacher Adara buries her grief, avoids all music and vows to exist without attachments. Social solitude works perfectly…until she’s forced to share her classroom with the new music mentor, a man who rattles her carefully constructed cage and sparks emotions she prefers to keep chained.
Always up for a challenge, violinist Garret is a master of patience and persistence, and the minute he meets Adara, he knows what he wants. Her sharp humor and haunted eyes inspire him in a way he’s never felt before. He makes it his mission to chip through her shields and breathe her back to life—no matter how hard she resists.
Even as Adara struggles to keep Garret at a distance with each clash of wills, each smile he coaxes, each kiss he steals, her resistance crumbles. But when the past catches up with them both, they will discover that some promises are meant to be broken…and others are worth risking everything for.
My Personal Review: I received a copy of this book for a fair and honest review. Having to deal with loss is hard on anyone and it can take one to emotional and physical lows. Adara is dealing with the lost of her brother and it has her building walls to keep everyone out. Garret is a talent violinist and once he sees Adara he is willing to trying to bring the wall down and give her a chance to be alive again. He sees something in her that he wants and is willing to put the effort to get what they both need. My heart was beating the whole way through this book.
