Worth the Risk — Stacy-Deanne

Houston music critic Alvin Zak becomes smitten with violinist Madeline Deever from the first moment she lays her bow to her violin to perform a concerto. Sent to review the orchestra, Alvin becomes so enraptured by Madeline that he asks her if he can do a feature on her. The polite, yet elusive Madeline agrees to think it over while declining Alvin's invitation for coffee. Alvin does not understand Madeline's abrupt refusal to his invite and it makes him even more interested in getting close to her.



The last thing Madeline is looking for is love since she is harboring a secret that has the power to ruin any potential relationship. Convinced no man would love her enough to accept her situation, she fights off Alvin's advances, but begins to fall in love with him.



Can Alvin convince Madeline to trust him and give into her feelings or is Madeline destined to spend her life alone?
