Music brought them together. Success nearly tore them apart. Valerie Fogarty's career as a surgeon ended the day she lost her first patient, when guilt made it impossible for her to set foot in an operating room ever again. Even though her career is crumbling, she knows she can count on one constant in her life: her best friend, Ryan. Her life changed the day she met him as a teenager through a mutual love of jazz music, and their friendship has kept her going through the hardest times. Ryan Wyler has dreamed of becoming a professional pianist ever since he was a kid listening to his grandpa's Sinatra records. When a talent scout offers to turn him into a jazz star, he doesn't need to think twice. Success is a double-edged sword, though, and being away from Valerie so much soon makes him question his choices. When Ryan's life hangs by a thread and they nearly lose it all, will they finally open their eyes and listen to their hearts?
