With her career as a cellist crippled by a repetitive stress injury, Libby is back in Sydney seeking employment and a home. When Libby meets Charles, memories stir. But that was eight years ago, in Vienna.

The son of famous musical parents, Charles had a lonely, bitter childhood, alleviated only by his great-aunt Gloria who, now in her frail old age, lives with him. He’s never forgotten beautiful Libby but he could never let himself fall in love with such an obsessive musician.

When Gloria hires Libby as her live-in companion, Charles is astounded. But without her cello, Libby’s charms begin to beguile him, and Libby realizes that there may be more to life than music. Libby and Charles must deal with their personal struggles and resolve the discord between them if they can ever hope to live in harmony.

WANTED: WIFE, WOMAN TO WORK BESIDE ME ON RANCH IN MONTANA.

Aries read the ad Ben McCabe had placed in the paper and prayed the position hadn’t been filled. She knew nothing about cooking, ranching, or being a wife for that matter. She longed to be a practicing physician, but no one wanted a woman doctor. Her father’s death, which left her with nothing but gambling debts and a young brother to provide and care for, forced her to put aside her love of medicine.

Answering this ad was the only way Aries could think of to provide for herself and her brother. She felt badly about deceiving Ben, but what she didn’t know was that Ben had deceived her from the moment she’d read the ad and been sent the money to travel to Montana.
