Julia is getting her life back together after her tumultuous marriage break-up. Focussed on her job at a thriving legal firm and fiercely protective of her son Jack, life has become calm and measured just the way Julia likes - no more secrets or surprises, everything under control and predictable. The last thing she needs or wants is a man complicating their lives again.
Jack is a teenager who dreams of becoming an awesome musician. Music is his safe place when he needs to escape dark memories. He has the passion and talent but needs the right teacher to nurture his potential.
Patrick Devlin runs a prestigious teaching academy. He's known love and heartbreak and has found that life is simpler when you follow your passions but, where women are concerned, avoid commitment.
When Julia grudgingly allows Jack to be accepted as a student of Patrick's academy, the journey of self-discovery for three damaged people begins. Sibling rivalry, a tragedy from the past, and the healing power of music will change their lives forever.
The Music Teacher
is a novel about the ties of brotherhood, a mother's sacrifice and a young boy's search for contentment where music becomes the healer and the teacher the cycle breaker.
