ABOUT THE BOOK
Britta Lindquist left Sitka six years ago in an attempt to distance herself from the love of her life, Yuri Belikov. Upon her return, she finds Yuri absent and his wife about to deliver a child. When tragic circumstances ensue, Britta suddenly finds herself caring for Yuri's children--and her life intertwining with the man she's tried so hard to forget.
But Britta's other great love is for the violin, and her talent is recognized by Brenton Maltese, a conductor from England. He proposes she accept the coveted first chair position in his orchestra...and also his hand in marriage.
At a Crossroads, Britta must determine what her heart truly longs for─and if she's willing to fight for it.

Kay's Comments: If you like Karen Kingsbury's series about the Baxter family, you will like this series. Like Kingsbury's series, Twilights's Serenade follows the story line of several characters whose lives are intertwined.
This is the third book in the "Song of Alaska" series. I began with this book and, while this is a stand alone title, this book spends time catching the reader up to the previous story lines. I found this a bit distracting. I believe that had I started with book 1 of the series, it would have been a better read for me.
Tracie Peterson is an accomplished author of many great books, however, I have enjoyed other books by her more than this one. I recommend beginning with the first book in the series.
