"Music brought me to New York. Love made me stay. But falling for him? That was never part of the plan."
Vanessa's dream of attending the prestigious Halton Music Academy is finally coming true. With her violin in hand and melodies in her heart, she's ready to chase her passion. But when she meets Zane Carter, a cold and distant musical prodigy with fingers that bring pianos and guitars to life, she finds herself drawn to a song she never meant to play.
When she takes a nanny job to make ends meet, the last thing she expects is to be working for Zane's family. Now, stuck under the same roof as the boy who refuses to let anyone in, Vanessa must navigate the delicate balance between heartstrings and music strings.
He's closed off. She's curious.
He plays with precision. She plays with passion.
And somehow, the melody between them is impossible to ignore.
But Zane has secrets, and Vanessa's heart might not be strong enough to handle the truth.

He doesn't know how much he's breaking my heart right now. "Trinity, I don't know how to show you how much sorry I am." He states, rubbing his face with his hand in frustration. "You can't, your 'sorry' doesn't changed what happened." I point to my face, where the bandage is. "This could have been prevented but you didn't even move a muscle to come and save me." "Trinity, if I did that it could have ruined my plans." He says, lowly. "It doesn't matter. If you truly love me like you say you do, you wouldn't have hesitated to come save me. I was so scared Aaron, I thought I was going to die." I respond, tears spilling before I can stop them. "I do love you Trin, I love you so fucking much." He states, clutching his shirt where his heart is. "Not like the way I love you Aaron. If you were in the position I was in, I wouldn't have fucking hesitated to come save you. I would die for you and you clearly wouldn't do the same." - Trinity's planner didn't originally have "falling in love with Aaron Florence" on it, but after a heated night and multiple dates, it became a daily thing.
