The Treble With Men by Piper Sheldon

4.0

Disclaimer: An eARC was provided via Smartypants Romance and the Author in exchange for an honest review. The Thoughts, opinions & feelings expressed in the review are therefore, my own.

The Treble with Men is a re-imagining of the Phantom of the Opera – something I didn’t realise until I was halfway through the book (mostly cause I am not exactly a fan of the original *shrugs*)

Our protagonists; both of them infact; are actually trying to live a lie; mostly to escape a past they believe has defined who they are to the world and a past they couldn’t outrun, no matter how hard they tried.

Kim Ddae, who goes by Christine Day now, blends into the background now; and that’s exactly how she likes it. She is invisible as the fourth chair cellist in SOOK, and that’s all she wants; her music and her invisibility.

When the recently hired maestro, the masked Devlin (who wears a bandana covering half his face, to protect his identity!), approaches Christine to work with him on his new composition – she is not only shocked; but also intrigued even if it scares the bajeesus out of her.

The romance between Kim and Devlin is quite sizzling, mysterious and the perfect kind of slow burn romance that I have had the pleasure of reading in recent times – trust me, if you love slow burn romances, you would know that there is art to writing a slow burn romance & Piper Sheldon shows that she promise of writing one that would make readers fall for her writing even more!

(I require a little violence against actual villains; at least a punch that puts him on the ground) was a little iffy for me; it was Kim and Devlin’s relationship and the way they came back together in that sweet climax was just the balm my soul needed <3
