I lost my equilibrium entirely. If he hadn’t been holding me, I would have fallen. And then I was falling. He’d pushed me back onto the bed. I lay there dazed with bliss as he pulled his t-shirt over his head.
Callie is determined to be resilient. The cheating ex-husband? Kicked to the curb. The high-pressure legal case? Totally under control. Her eighth-grade daughter’s infatuation with a hot biology teacher? Not a problem…probably. Maybe. Oh, damn. It would be a Greek tragedy for mother and daughter to crush on the same guy. Right?
Bart had music flowing from his fingertips and dreams of singer-songwriter stardom until a tragedy plugged up his creative well. He’s making do as a biology teacher in New York City, numb to his silence, until an angry Lawyer-Mommy stalks into his classroom for a parent-teacher conference. When Callie speaks, Bart hears music for the first time in years.
There are a thousand reasons why Callie and Bart are wrong for each other, and they keep those reasons firmly in mind. Until the reasons make no sense anymore. Is Callie Bart’s muse? Is he her safe haven? Can two broken people trust enough to fall in love?

My Review 4 STARS
**My thanks to Hidden Gems and the author for providing me with a free copy for an honest review**
This is the first book that I have read by this author and I was pleasantly surprised.
Callie is a divorced mother on one who has recently moved and landed a big case with the law firm she has moved with. But very quickly she find that her bosses wife is not as nice as she appears to be and she now also has a talent show to arrange and try to raise over £1.2 million for her daughters school.
Bart is a teacher at the school and is one of Callies daughters teachers. He is also a talented musician but he lost hearing music in things when his mother sold the farm after his father and sister died.
But after the pair meet Bart starts hearing music again, while Callie Tackles her issues along with an attraction to the teacher.
The book is a slow burn and eventually we get some spice. We get a period of happiness between the pair until something pulls them apart. Of course Callie has friends who help her find herself out of a potential mess, both Callie and Bart miss each other and at the talent show Callie pulls out her trump cards and rakes in the cash whilst Bart tells everyone of his love through song.
Its certainly a decent read and I would be happy to read more of this author in the future.
