What do a wannabe Slovenian rockstar, a Greek coming from a family of historians, an Austrian who always carries a MP3 player with them, a Serbian who's enamored with the Danube River and a Romanian who speaks no Hungarian have in common? They all aspire to graduate the most prestigious music academy in Budapest with the highest honours!
Miruna Munteanu has trouble adjusting to changing schools and countries, but wants to pe an amazing piano player. Ian Horvath knows nothing about classical music, yet wants to become a rockstar so great that girls will go wild after him. Kostas Papadopoulos and Maria von Bülow don't even think they belong here, the latter having no musical talents. And Sonja Nikoliç dedicates all of her serenades to the Danube River.
Those misfits are bound together by a twist of fate: their love for music, the past masters watching over them and a set of mysterious letters.

His Unwilling Muse
As a college freshman, Violet Riley is plagued with questions about her future. It is why a distraction is the last thing she needs or wants right now. But that is exactly what a street musician turns out to be. While Violet doesn't expect anything to happen from the brief encounter, the musician thinks differently. He corners Violet with a claim that she is his muse, and because being called someone's muse can only flatter a young woman's self-esteem, the musician expects Violet to be flattered by his compliment. She, however, sees the claim as nothing but an uninspiring lie. And that because of a simple reason. Violet hates classical music. Will the musician be able to convince Violet that he is telling the truth, or will Violet be successful in pushing him out of her life before finding out what actually hides behind his claim?

My Girl
Cal Jackson's new life as a rockstar fails to account for one thing: the existence of the girl he loves. ***** "What are you thinking about?" she asks. "A song," I say. "A new song." I stare at the ocean as I sing the song that I wrote, something that comes from the darkest place of my heart. "Do you even know how gifted you are?" she whispers. "You're destined to be someone big, Cal." "Really?" "Yeah." ***** She's perfect in every way. Beautiful. Smart. Her bright future is right there in front of her eyes. While here I am. Ruined. No college, let alone a future. Just an image of a wannabe rockstar with tattoed arms and an old guitar. I knew that our story would be no less than that tragic Romeo and Juliet shit the moment I laid my eyes on her, but still, I can't resist her. The moment she whispers my name, "Cal," I lose all sanity. She becomes my melody, my lyrics, the song that keeps echoing in my ears. People call her Mia. I call her my Amy, her name crafted above my beating heart, tattoed on my skin. Amelia Davis is my girl. Mine. And only mine. ***** THE JACKSONS BOOK #1 © 2021 Anya Jayvyn. All Rights Reserved.
