Publisher Description
Seeking solace in his music, Marcus Temple fled his stifling small town to become a world-class cellist. Any lingering longings and regrets are safely buried beneath his successful career—until a family crisis compels him to return and brings him face-to-face with the woman whose heart he broke when he left.
More comfortable in overalls than orchestra seats, Mattie Bendixon has done her best to forget the boy who shattered her teenage dreams. She keeps busy and fulfilled as a carpenter with her grandfather's construction company. But now a big city rival threatens his legacy.
Determined to save her beloved business, Mattie makes a reckless wager with Marcus. All he has to do is stay in his hated hometown for one month. All she has to risk is her heart.

Mature, complex, interesting. Refreshingly deep.
Fantastic start to this series
This is the second book I’ve read by Brenda Margriet and I loved it just as much as Chef d’ Amour. Allegro Court is the second chance romance between Marcus and Mattie. She has loved him for over half her life. He left Prince George when he was fifteen to attend school. He hasn’t visited more than a dozen times or so during that time. When his mom has a stroke, his only thought is to have her placed in a home, so he can get back to his life and music career as a cellist. Mattie dares him or bets him he can’t stay in town for a month. I won’t leave any spoilers, but I recommend this fantastic book to everyone that loves a good second chance romance. I can’t wait to read Jo and Camryn’s stories, when they are released.
