A RECKLESS NOTE begins with Aria Alard looking for clues to find her last remaining relative, her brother Gio. She refuses to believe he is dead. She has a job that allows her to procure collectibles and rare items that are a must-have for her wealthy clients. Using that, Aria goes on the search despite the warnings she heard from her family to be careful in public. She has no way of knowing that the journey she is beginning will lead her to met someone very dangerous. . . Especially dangerous to her heart, though she tries to fight the attraction.
Kace August is dark, dangerous, and everything that Aria should stay away from, but instead of running she is utterly drawn to him. Can she trust this brilliant musician with her family secret? How can she stay with him if she doesn't?
A RECKLESS NOTE, the first book in the Brilliance Trilogy, is another fascinating read by author Lisa Renee Jones! The dynamic between Aria and Kace is off the charts. Her family secret is an intriguing one that would certainly appeal to a musician and especially to a violinist, but I will leave it at that ... you have to read A RECKLESS NOTE to find out what makes her family so notorious.
A RECKLESS NOTE is filled with a multitude of secrets, both hers and his. The quick, incredibly intense attraction between this couple despite those secrets along with the return of fan-favorite characters, the storyline will draw you in and hold you tight. So much so that when you get to the end, you will be tempted to say a number of things and "no, don't end it here!" might just be one of the most polite. So be warned, our favorite Queen of Cliffhangers does it again. Books two and three in the Brilliance Trilogy can't get here soon enough!
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.
