Maryam Balan is drab. She's unpretty, kind of boring, and is tired of fighting to be seen, lost among her prettier, more talented sisters. But when her big sister Ellie whisks her off to DC for the summer to be an accompanist to Georgiana, a budding star in the opera world, Maryam is lost in a whole new world full of music, fame, and unexpected romance. Pride & Prejudice adaptation/sequel.
