Aria

Blue Notes, Book 3

By: Shira Anthony

Narrated by: Peter B. Brooke

Five years after a prestigious scholarship jumpstarted his opera career, Aiden Lind has it all: fame, choice roles, and Lord Cameron Sherrington to share his life with. Maintaining his façade takes effort, but under his poised, sophisticated mask, Aiden is still the insecure kid from rural Mississippi. Then he walks in on Cam with another man, and the illusion of perfection shatters.

Philadelphia attorney Sam Ryan never moved on after his partner died, though he tried. Instead of dating, he keeps himself busy with work - but when he unexpectedly runs into ex-lover Aiden while on a rare vacation in Paris, he's inspired to give their love a second chance. First, though, he'll have to get Aiden to forgive him. Because when Sam was still grieving five years ago, he broke Aiden's heart.

When rekindled lust blossoms into a true romance, it seems like the start of something wonderful. But Aiden's career has him on the road much of the time, and the physical distance between him and Sam starts translating into an emotional disconnect. If Aiden and Sam can't learn to communicate, their separation may prove more than their love can bear.

I love this series but this book, not so much

2.5 stars. I hate to say it but I did skip ahead a lot. The non-communication/miscommunications drove me absolutely insane. The whole "in the morning" & "I'm just tired" just went on way too long. I wished that the issues would have been worked out more like half way through the book so we could have really gotten down to their romance.
