BLURB:


For some, first love is a fleeting spark heralding the greater loves to come. For others, first love is the greatest love.
The only love.

When a music audition at the world-renowned LaGuardia Arts high school brings together two thirteen-year-olds, unassuming Aurelia Ramirez Preston and confident Chadwick David, the serendipitous encounter becomes an unbreakable friendship.

A friendship develops into an unyielding love.
A love spanning decades and continents.

With New York City as their playground, best friends Chad and Aurelia navigate the turbulence of adolescence. They blossom, and so does their love. An awkward first date turns into a night of intoxicating kisses and together, they lose their innocence.

Years later, Chad is “Maestro,” the tattooed virtuoso, the James Dean of classical music.

And Aurelia is an accomplished cellist. His muse. The enduring love behind his greatness.

But when the maestro falters, even for a moment, the most beautiful symphony can spiral into unrelenting chaos. And the greatest of loves can become the most tragic heartbreak.

Maestro is a symphony of words, four movements filled with longing, secrets, betrayal, and the grace of forgiveness.

Top Read 2022



This was an epic opus of a read! One of my Top Reads of the year. Stunningly beautiful, devastatingly heartbreaking, and unabashedly emotional.

"All my compositions and all the music I perform are inspired by her. She's in every note, melody and phrase."

This story follows Aurelia Preston and Chadwick David over a period of twenty years from the moment they met as thirteen-year-olds at the 'Fame' school in New York and formed a fast friendship. We witness an enduring and unbreakable love between them as their relationship ebbed and flowed under the pressure to succeed, through lies, loss and tragedy, through fear, hope and joy, until the stars finally aligned for them.

"Even if I ran to the end of this world, I'd never be able to run away from love. Love clings to a beating heart. And mine still beats for Chad."

I went through a whole gamut of emotions as I rejoiced with our lovers and cried with them, too. Their connection was beyond soulful. They were a fire that burned constantly - sometimes just the embers and sometimes an inferno. Their passion was uncontainable and possessive. I couldn't get enough of them! This story was a mixture of adorable, heartwarming, incredibly sexy, and painfully angsty. And, the music! The author talked with authority and beauty about the music and inspired me to look up the pieces mentioned. Told mainly from Aurelia's POV, we get a few chapters from Chad's viewpoint towards the end of book, as well as throughout the story via emails, letters, texts and voice messages. Aurelia grew up in a dysfunctional family that preyed on her insecurities, whilst Chad grew up in a loving environment, but pressure from his grandfather to fulfil his mighty potential played a huge part in the storyline.

"You're still her. You'll always be her. The one I love the most."

I was absolutely 100% captivated by this book and it will stay with me for a long, long time.
