After suffering a traumatic loss, Selena retreats into the one thing that has always offered her solace: the violin. And with it, her new instructor.
Derek is exactly what she needs right now—cold, distant, and demanding nothing but perfection. His rigid expectations become the distraction she craves, keeping her mind off a pain that threatens to consume her. But as their lessons grow more intimate, Selena begins to unravel the mystery behind Derek’s enigmatic exterior and discovers that he also has a past that refuses to stay silent.
Set against a backdrop of melancholy and longing, The Lesson is a symphony of love and loss. With every bow drawn, Selena and Derek are forced to confront their shared grief and their painful pasts to forge a better future. But the path to healing is a delicate fugue—and the cost of true intimacy might be one they are unwilling to play.
The Lesson is a contemporary Gothic romance about finding love after loss, where every note played carries the weight of their past—and the potential to change their lives forever.
