When talented violinist Freya Winter is chosen to take part in a musical celebration alongside some of the best instrumentalists in the world, she is thrilled. Performing in front of royalty is a breathtaking opportunity, but her true motivation for traveling to Salzburg is to fulfill an unlikely dream: to meet and train under the renowned Salzburg Maestro, a master musician shrouded in mystery.

Freya travels aboard the Orient Express to practice with the newly formed orchestra in Salzburg, and nothing can distract her—not her mother’s illness, nor her father’s domineering ways; however, when a handsome passenger becomes a regular fixture on her journeys, Freya feels her focus blurring.

Conversation with Erich is easy, and their shared love of music draws them undeniably closer. But even as they open their hearts to each other, the harsh realities of her family life intrude on the future she’s envisioned, and Freya feels her dreams slipping through her fingers, threatening to rob her of everything she cherishes most.

Rating: Mild. Mild kissing.

    Ohhhh, I think this might be my favorite of this series. I loved it. Initially I felt a twinge of disappointment because there wasn’t much time on that first train ride and the thought crossed my mind that since the theme of this series is the Orient Express that it was too bad we didn’t spend much time there. Imagine my delight to discover that our love interests would spend a lot more time together on that train traveling back and forth between Salzburg and Paris. That was indeed delightful. It wasn’t hard to figure out Erich’s secret so it was just waiting to see how it all played out. Also, I started to speculate on a possible twist but found I was all wrong on that one so it wasn’t completely predictable.

    I think my favorite part of this book is that Ms. Johnson wrote this in such a way to make me truly believe that Freya and Erich could not live without music. And I believed that Freya was immensely gifted. I am no great musician by any stretch of the imagination but I have attended musical and dance performances where a gift like that was obvious to the audience. And the descriptions in the book were completely believable.

    So much to love about this book. And it doesn’t hurt that Erich is pretty swoony too. I was so happy to be able to read this in one sitting because I wouldn’t have wanted to set it aside for any length of time. It was an enjoyable-swoony read.

    No sex, language or violence
