Members Reviews: Not as emotionally engaging as Sonata for Scoundrel, but very good I liked this book and I'm rating five stars because I would read it again. The story line is interesting, including a bit of a criminal element with the hero trying to catch the heroine's uncle as a blackmailer and thief. The heroine's talent as a violinist is beautfully described and portrayed. Aunt Agatha is a lively and endearing character who adds an element of humor. This book is not as emotionally engaging as Sonata for a Scoundrel, but it's still very well written and a solid addition to Lawson's "Music of the Heart" series. Mistress of Melody I skipped all the love making parts, but other than that I enjoyed the story the h new what she wanted and tried her best to achieve it, at the same time looking out for her sister who needed her. A couple of nits Didn't gossip columns of the time use initials rather than full names? Spoiler Alert: surely it took more than a letter to assume guardianship. What about probate proceedings? Explicit sex The hardships and sacrifices women encountered in those days make one glad we live in this time except for the romance ... I read book one sometime ago and book two is just as entertaining. The hardships and sacrifices women encountered in those days make one glad we live in this time except for the romance dept. The written word about love, this author does a very good job with her characters and their lives. Great follow-up to Sonata for a Scoundrel If you enjoyed the first book in this series, you will enjoy this one too. I would have preferred a longer story (only a bit over 250 pages) but it's very well written, a great story, and hardly any typos. Excellent book. I would have given it 5 stars if it was longer (at least 350) and had more mystery to it than it did, but it's still an awesome book that I recommend, and it's definitely worth every penny. Anthea Lawson titles - I never pass up.
