Publisher's Summary:
Five years after a prestigious scholarship jumpstarted his opera career, Aiden Lind has it all: fame, choice roles, and Lord Cameron Sherrington to share his life with. Maintaining his façade takes effort, but under his poised, sophisticated mask, Aiden is still the insecure kid from rural Mississippi. Then he walks in on Cam with another man, and the illusion of perfection shatters.
Philadelphia attorney Sam Ryan never moved on after his partner died, though he tried. Instead of dating, he keeps himself busy with work - but when he unexpectedly runs into ex-lover Aiden while on a rare vacation in Paris, he's inspired to give their love a second chance. First, though, he'll have to get Aiden to forgive him. Because when Sam was still grieving five years ago, he broke Aiden's heart.
When rekindled lust blossoms into a true romance, it seems like the start of something wonderful. But Aiden's career has him on the road much of the time, and the physical distance between him and Sam starts translating into an emotional disconnect. If Aiden and Sam can't learn to communicate, their separation may prove more than their love can bear.

Making Beautiful Music
Aiden Lind is an international opera singer living the glamorous life in London and other European capitals with his partner, Lord Cameron Sherrington. Yet, under it all, he's still that boy from a poor southern town whose father still thinks a career as a singer is ridiculous. So, when he walks into a scene where his handsome, wealthy lover is cheating on him AGAIN, he is shattered, but knows he has to be strong enough to walk away.
His singing is his love, anyway, and so far, it has never let him down. When he happens to meet an old lover, there is a possibility of something that could be rekindled, but attorney Sam Ryan is has his own firm in Phildelphia. Can a long-distance relationship work with two important and busy careers?
Aiden and Sam are both distinct and very real characters, and despite the glamorous, high-profile life Aiden leads, he still has to deal with real life problems the same as Sam--particularly, the logistics of two people with lives trying to make things work. It is fascinating to see if and how they can manage it. And along the way are lovely, intense meetings of this bi-continental pair, along with visits to their friends, some of whom were featured in previous books (but reading those are not absolutely necessary to enjoying each different novel--although they are highly recommended!).
It was wonderful to be back in the world of music and art and law and love, with another of Shira Anthony's books!
Why talk when we can up the angst?
I don't think I can express how much I hate the lack of communication trope. I was frustrated through most of this book (I had the audible version) because every time one of them would try to talk, the other would stop them and just say "Later". And of course they never addressed it.
Other than that, the book was decent.
