Hana Trio (Book 2)
Will giving into passion free them from their secret…
Or cost them everything?
Making beautiful music is what chamber violinist Megan
Han lives for. But one night with a seductive stranger and a surprise pregnancy
could jeopardize her hard work. Especially when that handsome stranger turns
out to be Daniel Pak, CFO of her father's company. The only choice for these
star-crossed lovers is to keep their fling -- and Megan's pregnancy -- a
secret. But when passion reignites, will they risk one more sweet symphony?
Good book. Megan is dedicated to her music career as a
violinist with the local chamber music organization. She also has secretly
prepared a more modern electric violin piece. As the book opens, she is on her
way to performing it for the first time at a club. Unfortunately, she runs out
of gas on the way. She's rescued by a handsome stranger who sticks around for
her performance. On an emotional high, Megan gives in to the attraction that
flares with her rescuer, and they spend a passionate night together, then part
ways.
When Megan discovers she's pregnant, she has no way to
contact the father. Being a single mother was never in her plan, but with her
family's support, she can handle it. I loved how Angie and Chloe were so
excited to become aunties. Megan is more worried about telling her father, a
very traditional Asian father. That worry intensifies when she meets Daniel,
her father's new CFO - and the father of her baby! What will her father do when
he discovers the link between his daughter and his protégé?
Daniel is stunned when he discovers that the woman he
couldn't forget is his boss's daughter. His shock is multiplied when she
informs him of his impending fatherhood. He immediately proposes marriage and
isn't happy when Megan turns him down flat.
I enjoyed watching the relationship develop between Megan
and Daniel. Megan rejects Daniel's marriage proposal because she refuses to
marry without love. She had the example of her parents' marriage and won't
settle for anything less. Daniel doesn't believe in love. His experiences with
that emotion show that it isn't real or doesn't last. His mother abandoned
Daniel and his father, and Daniel's college girlfriend left him for his
roommate.
There is also the issue of revealing Daniel as the father
of her baby. Worried about her father's reaction, Megan concocts an elaborate
scheme to solidify Daniel's position in the company so that her father won't
fire Daniel when they reveal the truth. Complicating matters, the attraction
between Megan and Daniel is irresistible. Giving into it is just one more secret
to keep.
It was hilarious that Megan's father kept playing
matchmaker for them. He wasn't subtle about it. Between their stolen times
together and forced times together, Megan and Daniel had time to get to know
each other. It doesn't take long for Megan to realize that she loves Daniel,
but she wants her love returned. It is clear that Daniel is falling for her,
too, but he shuts down that train of thought when it happens. He allows his
fears to push Megan away.
After the confrontation with Megan's father
reinforced their differing opinions on love, I ached for them both. But all was
not lost, as support and advice came from an unexpected source. I liked how
Megan and Daniel looked at their own failings and realized they had to fight
for what they wanted. I loved how Megan's dad had one more trick up his sleeve,
giving them a chance to make things right. I loved the ending and seeing Megan
and Daniel finally showing their vulnerabilities while looking forward to a
future together.
