Brilliant, Breathtaking, Magical...

THE MUSIC BOX is one of many novels i have read by Andrea Kane...this book leads you into a magical Wonderland Adventure. You frequently find yourself smiling at the antics of the uncommon staff and characters residing in Nevon Manor. I was and am thoroughly enthralled by this and many of Mrs. Kanes other novels. Its as if she has the ability to pull you into an unending abyss of happiness, togetherness, and love...brilliant work!

Okay

I was a little disappointed. It was predictable and unlike Ms. Kane's usually writing. I personally liked the Black Diamond series. Julian and Aurora's story was uplifitng. They had loads of fun, after they married. (near the beginning of the book) Unlike Aurora's story, they married near the end of the book and their so-called adventures were not exciting. To sum it up... it's was quite boring. You'd best read another one of Ms. Kane's books.

A most enlightening fairy tale story with love and passion

I read this book in two days and am reading it again. It is a feel good book with passion and a look into what love really is. Andrea Kane is a great story teller and i would recommend this and all her books to people who are looking for an understanding of true love.

A poignant and moving work

In 1875, with the death of her odious brother, Lady Nevon finally can publicly recognize her bastard nephew, Bryce Lyndley. For twenty-three long years, she has clandestinely supported Bryce in his endeavors, hiding it from her brother who refused to recognize the lad as his off-spring. Her efforts have been rewarded with Bryce being a highly regarded barrister. However, she was never able to lavish as much affection as she wanted to on him for fear her brother would learn all and cut the child off with nothing. Now she wants to shower the thirty-one year old man with love and affection, and introduce him to her ward, Gabrielle Denning, who suffered a childhood trauma. Bryce and Gaby are emotionally as far apart as any two beings could ever be. Bryce is pure logic, using his brain to resolve everything. Gaby is pure heart, pouring love into her endeavors. When they meet, sparks fly and love flourishes. However, before this deserving couple can find a lasting relationship, they must uncover the mystery behind the tragedy that radically changed Gaby's life thirteen years ago. Fans of historical romantic suspense know that some of the best books of the genre come from that awesome author, Andrea Kane. Her latest, novel, THE MUSIC BOX, is her usual brilliant fiction, filled with the mark of Kane: a fast-paced, action filled intrigue, starring two wonderful, but wounded characters who touch the reader's heart. This novel is must reading for all romance fans. Harriet Klausner
