Summary:

Beautiful, talented, and about to inherit – Why is Sarah’s heart in turmoil...? Sarah Miller, the new darling of the Chamber Music Society, the protégée cellist of their in-house Quartet, receives rave reviews for her first series of concerts. She has just buckled her last term at New York’s prestigious music academy of Julliard when a hit-and-run driver strikes her down and disrupts her plans. Luckily unscathed, engagements still need postponing until proper exercises can restore agility and full mobility to her bruised wrist. While the melody is interrupted, Sarah meets up with the formidable Spinner brothers. The younger Mark, handsome and charming, sweeps her off her feet. The elder Julian, black sheep, black belted, and daunting black mood enjoys badgering and humiliating her. Her wrist recovered, playing music again, Sarah wonders which exercises will mend a bruised ego and an aching heart. ...Perhaps it’s because she is unworldly, unsophisticated – an orphan raised by tutors and nannies who ran to the bright lights of New York City...only to slam into the dark heart of Julian Spinner.

Summary:

The daughter of an old, wealthy family, Estelle, is forced by them to marry a man of her social standing, but not before the man she really loves has given her his fraternity pin (in 1908). Years later after her death, Estelle's daughter Diana finds the pin and its owner's letters. She makes contact with the daughter of the pin's donor, and they become friends, both realising that although their respective parents had long marriages, they were both unhappy. The pin, after three generations, winds up with the grandson of the man who first gave it.
