ABOUT THE BOOK
From the beloved USA Today bestselling author of A Lasting Impression and To Whisper Her Name comes the final and much anticipated novel in the sweeping southern Belmont Mansion series...
A master violinist trained in Vienna, Rebekah Carrington manages to wheedle her way into an audition with the maestro at the newly-formed Nashville Philharmonic. But women are "far too fragile and frail" for the rigors of an orchestra, and Rebekah's hopes are swiftly dashed because the conductor—determined to leave his mark on the world of classical music—bows to public opinion. To make matters worse, Adelicia Acklen Cheatham, mistress of Belmont Mansion and Rebekah's new employer, agrees with him.
Nationally acclaimed conductor Nathaniel Tate Whitcomb is Nashville's new orchestra leader. And despite a reluctant muse—and a strange buzzing and recurring pain in his head—he must finish composing his symphony before the grand opening of the city's new opera hall. But far more pressing, he must finish it for the one who first inspired his love of music—his father, who is dying. As Tate's ailment worsens, he believes Rebekah can help him finish his symphony. But how do you win back a woman's trust when you've robbed her of her dream?
As music moves us to tears yet makes our hearts soar, A Note Yet Unsung captures the splendor of classical music at a time when women's hard-won strides in cultural issues changed not only world history—but the hearts of men.
MY REVIEW
The last book in Tamera Alexander’s Belmont Mansion series, A Note Yet Unsung offers the series a perfectly satisfying and fitting conclusion. Not only that, this book gives readers a captivating and compelling story of its own, filled with excellent classical music appreciation. Master violinist Rebekah Carrington and acclaimed conductor Nathaniel Tate Whitcomb have startling challenges set before them, which bring them together in surprising ways. Despite their adversarial start, I loved seeing the relationship develop between these characters, growing with respect, banter, and heart. The way the story unfolds proves unique and interesting and kept me turning pages without stopping until the end. I can easily recommend A Note Yet Unsung to interested readers—it’s so worth a read!
