The only other person who reviewed this book did not care for it; admittedly, it is not like the typical romance novel that dwells mostly on romantic relationships. The main focus was the heroine's development as a musician, and much emphasis was put on her achievement as well as that of her two housemates (also women). Having been a musician in my youth, I found the emphasis on these women's professional growth in an era when women were still mostly expected to become wives to be refreshing. It is not your usual romance novel; the romance is there, but so is the pursuit of personal growth and professional accomplishment. I liked the characters and did not mind taking the time to enjoy the novel. But as they say, de gustibus non disputandum.
