About this ebook

Sought after by every agent and actress in New York, handsome casting director James B. Lockhart Jr. is at the top of his craft.

Red-haired beauty Elizabeth Ash lives in a third-floor apartment and earns her living as a flutist.

Both have loved deeply...but things haven't turned out as they'd hoped.

Then Elizabeth discovers a story scribbled in purple ink in the margins of some old novels at a nearby church thrift shop. It moves her like nothing else has...and makes her long for something more.

Jim has spent months mired in the past. Now he hopes to start a new chapter in his life...create a new beginning. But is that really possible after all this time? Or is it too late?

    I really liked the story line of this book! Elizabeth, a flutist by trade, finds some "romance" books at a thrift store and buys them. Inside she discovers messages written in them by a woman to a man and Elizabeth longs to find the person these books belong to. Enter James B. Lockhart, casting director, who doesn't know his wife left him the messages in her books, but does come to know and really like Elizabeth. It makes for a great story!!

    Decent, but ultimately too lightweight.
