Cellist Emily Lopez, almost seventeen, feels like a discordant piece of music, full of mismatched notes that make her cringe. First her boyfriend breaks up with her then her dad, a famous symphony conductor, cancels their summer together touring Europe. To top it off, she's forced to go with her mom and stepdad to a dusty, old cattle ranch in Montana. How will she master an incredibly difficult Saint-Sa#65533;ns concerto without her dad or cello teacher? She only has seven weeks to prepare for the competition that will determine her future. To a San Francisco girl, Montana feels like the end of the earth. But she soon discovers it is full of surprises after meeting Breck, the summer ranch hand.

I took one look at this book and really didn't think it'd be my cup of tea but I decided to give it a go anyway. I'm glad to say I did because I couldn't put it down. I just wanted to know what was going to happen next to the characters.
I loved Breck, he's exactly the kind of man I adore - just the right amount of cockiness whilst having a sense of humour and being sweet. I thought he made Emily more exciting, without him she'd have been slightly dull. I'm not too sure what to make of Emily. She was a bit too self-pitying to me. She wanted everything to go her way and got all angst-y when she did things wrong. She had her moments but they were few and far between. All of the characters had a kind of realistic side to them. They were all easy to connect to and be able to understand their problems and their angst.
The scenes were well written even if there were times I somewhat struggled to envision being there. There were scenes I enjoyed more than others like when they went to the rodeo. I couldn't put the book down after that point eager to know all was well. For me that was one of the best parts of the book.
There was a part in the book that left me confused and Breck at one point was called "Break" but that is just me nit-picking. ( )
