Publisher Description
Book one in the Brilliance Trilogy...
It all started with a note, just a simple note hand written by a woman I didn't know, never even met. But in that note is perhaps every answer to every question I've ever had in my life. And because of that note, I look for her, but find him. I'm drawn to his passion, his talent, a darkness in him that somehow becomes my light, my life. Kace August is rich, powerful, a rockstar of violins, a man who is all tattoos, leather, good looks and talent. He has a wickedly sweet ability to play the violin, seducing audiences worldwide. Now, he’s seducing me. I know he has secrets. I don't care. Because you see, I have secrets, too.
I’m not Aria Alard, as he believes. I’m Aria Stradivari, daughter to Alessandro Stradivari, a musician born from the same blood as the man who created the famous Stradivarius violin. I am as rare as the mere 650 instruments my ancestors created. Instruments worth millions. 650 masterpieces, the brilliance unmatched. 650 reasons to kill. 650 reasons to hide. One reason not to: him.
Customer Reviews
4.5 stars—spicy and seductive
4.5 stars—A RECKLESS NOTE is the first instalment in Lisa Renee Jones’ contemporary, adult BRILLIANCE erotic, romantic suspense series focusing on musician/violinist Kace August, and twenty eight year old collector Aria Alard. Several characters from the author’s Inside Out,Savage Trilogy and Walker Brothers series cross over for familiarity.
Told from first person perspective (Aria Alard) A RECKLESS NOTE follows musician/violinist Kace August, and collector Aria Alard. Aria Alard is a collector, a procurer of rare items and artifacts, including vintage wine and the Stradivarius violin. At a recent auction where a rare Stradivarius violin was supposed to be auctioned, Aria will meet violinist Kace August, a man who stirs something deep within our story line heroine but Aria is searching for the pieces of her family history, pieces that are rare and often hard to find including her brother Gio who hasn’t returned any of her calls. What ensues is the quick building romance and relationship between Kace and Aria, and the potential fall-out as Kace knows more about our heroine than she could have ever imagined.
Kace August is tried of the concert circuit, and is finishing the current tour with artist Chris Marek, as they raise funds for various charities around the world. Kace is a man who knows what he wants, and he wants our heroine, no matter the cost. But like our heroine, Kace is keeping secrets, secrets that could very well destroy the building romance between our leading couple as Kace’s secrets directly affect Aria Alard.
The relationship between Kace and Aria is one of immediate attraction but Aria is on a mission to locate several items for her current client when a competitor sees an opportunity to pull Aria from her ongoing search in an effort to gain her knowledge in a search for himself. Aria’s rapidly building relationship with Kace August reveals the potential for bad blood in the world of priceless collectibles, a revelation that is about to directly affect our story line heroine. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.
There is a large ensemble cast of familiar and colorful secondary and supporting characters including Mark and Crystal Compton, Chris and Sara Merit, and Alexander Voss (Inside Out), and Rick Savage (Savage Trilogy).
A RECKLESS NOTE is a story of secrets and lies, money and competition, relationship, friendships, family and love. The premise is captivating and intriguing; the characters are energetic, spirited and charismatic; the romance is seductive, spicy and hot. A RECKLESS NOTE ends on a cliff hanger-you have been warned.
