When tragic circumstances ensue, Britta suddenly finds herself caring for Yuri's children--and her life intertwining with the man she's tried so hard to forget.

He proposes she accept the coveted first chair position in his orchestra•and also his hand in marriage. At a crossroads, Britta must determine what her heart truly longs for--and if she's willing to fight for it. (via Goodreads)



Thoughts: I read this book due to the fact that I had read the other two books and wanted to find out what happened to the Lundquist family.  And quite honestly, I was a tad disappointed in the book. The reason that I was tad disappointed was because I had hoped that the book wouldn't be as cliched as the second book, but sadly it was, at least in sections of the book.  I did find that towards the end of the book that the storyline improved, but only slightly.  It nicely closed out the series, although I would have liked to have the middle child, a daughter, more involved in the story, even if it were only through letters, etc.
