Magic Crescendo — Maggi Charles

HIS TOUCH WAS WORTH MORE THAN HER FAME.

Christa Emery had always lived vicariously through Paul. His triumphs as a concert pianist were hers. Now his pain was hers as well.

Paul was just reaching his peak when the accident crippled his hand and ended his career. Now Paul was living through Christa, creating for Christa. Finally, she would have the career denied her and now lost to him. She would be the balm to soothe Paul's ravaged soul.

But Christa wanted much more than the glamour and adulation of the concert stage. She would willingly trade it all for another moment in Paul's passionate embrace.
