The story explores themes of love, sacrifice, and the struggle between personal ambition and familial expectations.
"Newly unemployed concert pianist Thomas Samuel has spent most of his adult life escaping his upbringing. He's become an expert at hiding his feelings and remaining professional. But when he meets cellist Carissa Kendal he's faced with one emotion he can't escape - love. Carissa hadn't expected her mother to take on the art of matchmaking and she was convinced she wasn't very good at it. Strong minded Carissa had her work cut out for her with the emotionally scarred Thomas, but love always wins in the end - or does it? By the time Thomas realizes his past does not define the man he has become, it might be too late. Big venues and scenic places might just win over the heart of Carissa and take her away from him - unless he hurries and faces the man who ruined his career and convinces Carissa that every performance, even love, deserves an encore." from the back cover
