“The live he knew is over. The life she wants is just out of reach. Together, they must learn what it means to really live.”
Now I know how Emma Scott started her career as romance author and won so many hearts from readers. This book is romance at its best, full of emotions, angst, hope and recovery. Two broken souls repair each other and forge into a brilliant future, after enduring some heartbreaking trials. It’s a page turning, biting your nails, emotional ride. No wonder everyone went on the #teamNoah ride!
Charlotte auditioned and won the violin first seat for Juilliard’s Spring concert. She was also dating one of the concert directors. Two weeks before the concert, she got devastating news, and left to go home and support her family. When she came back, she had lost her seat and her boyfriend. She finished Juilliard but she lost her music, and was working as a waitress and bartender, hardly making rent. Then she got the offer of assisting Noah Lake, previous daredevil reporter in Planet X magazine, now blind after a dive gone wrong. He’s bitter and angry and has gone through six assistants already. Until Charlotte!
I love the story of how Charlotte got Noah to lower his defensive walls. Her daily practices brought him out of the room to listen and enjoy. Music is the leveling factor for many soul aches and in this case I think it softened Noah’s soul. Once he learns her story, he deals more and it all starts with a walk to Central Park.
Their story is turbulent, fraught with Noah’s fears, pride, stubbornness, yearning for a past that is not possible anymore. He has a hard path to travel before achieving acceptance and having a future with Charlotte. Charlotte’s path is no less angsty because she needs to overcome her grief to unlock her music. I found her the stronger one, full of determination and forgiveness, exactly who Noah needs at his side. Their love is fathomless, loyal, full of devotion. I loved that Noah learned to see with his hands and it turned into his love language. The day he saw his friend Lucien through his hands was one of the most touching moments in the story. I knew at that moment that Noah had gone full circle and cheered so hard for him, with tears in my eyes. Emma Scott knows how to break hearts and mend them and she did a magnificent job in this story!
