Prelude (2013) - Plot & Excerpts

I understand this book is 4th in the series, it is the first book I have picked up by this author and it won't be the last. The story was complete and I didn't feel cheated or that I lacked backstory which was really well done by the author.I really liked both main characters. In other reviews people had issue with David but I didn't see it that way, because of his childhood he had low self-esteem and more importantly to me came across as really really shy. Alex also had a miserable childhood though I think he at least knew he was loved. I don't normally like the 'big misunderstanding' but in this case it fit. Their story was lovely to read.Another thing I have to mention is the amazing way the author described the music - I could hear it through the words. What an amazing talent. I love this series of stand-alone tales with some cross-pollination of characters and a setting in the international music scene.David Somers is an internationally acclaimed conductor, seemingly confident in his abilities. But that is only regarding music. Personally, he is deeply insecure and has to keep a strong control over his life if he doesn't want to fall apart. Alex Bishop is a guest violinist with David's orchestra. He's also a confident, tattooed rocker and someone David would never wish to associate with in a million year--total opposites. But Alex admires David, and they both recognize the passion and dedication to music in each other. But is Alex's confidence enough to overcome David's insecurities?This is a sweet and a bit bitter-sweet tale. David is brilliant but a bit of a mess. Alex is amazing--overcoming so much and soaring. There are some coincidences that are a little hard to buy, and maybe David is a bit too brooding and uncertain, and Alex a bit too good to be true, but it's a lot of fun to read, nonetheless.
