Andrea Romance
College sweethearts Angie and Joshua were torn apart by chance. Eight years later, they cross paths again, and their emotions still run high. Angie knows he can't forgive her, but she makes him an offer he can't refuse in order to gain his help in saving her chamber music society. As they spend time together, the sparks between them turn into a flame. Is it just a fling, or can they find forever together? This is a swoony story with a nice amount of steam. Angie and Joshua were both strong, likeable, and endearing characters who deserved their happy ending. Looking forward to more in this series! Thanks, NetGalley, for the ARC I received. This is my honest and voluntary review.

4.5/5* A Song of Secrets by Jayci Lee, book one in the Hana Trio series, is a second chance story filled with secrets and regrets. Angie Han and Josh Shin were college sweethearts, creating beautiful music together before they were torn apart by Angie’s controlling and manipulative father. Eight years later, they cross paths again, and while they are still attracted and affected by each other, neither is certain that Josh can forgive Angie for breaking his heart. Angie asks Josh for his help in saving her chamber music society and in exchange, she will help his grandfather heal from health problems, playing music on her cello for him. Spending time together reignites the flames that still burned between them. Their chemistry is off the charts, and the electricity between them could light up a concert hall. As secrets are revealed, Angie decides she need more than just a fling with an old flame and Josh must decide if he has enough room in his life for his family business, creating music, and Angie; not necessarily in that order. Ms. Lee wrote an emotional, steamy romance, with all the right notes, that is the perfect introduction to her new trilogy. She provided a tale rich with emotions, sizzling chemistry, clever banter, and authentic characters giving Angie and Josh a chance at love and making beautiful music together. I highly recommend A Song of Secrets to other readers and I can’t wait for more from her sisters. I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.
