Heart Strings Donna Hatch

Gently bred young ladies don't run away from home to find employment, but when forced to choose between marrying a brutish oaf or becoming another man's mistress, Susanna makes an unconventional decision. Following her passion for music, she flees to London with dreams of securing a position as a harpist. Becoming entangled with a handsome violinist who calls himself Kit, but who seems too aristocratic for a working-class musician, may be more problematic than sleeping in the streets. Kit's attention is captured by Susanna's breath-taking talent, admirable grace, and winsome smiles...until a lawman exposes the new harpist as a runaway bride and a thief. With peril lurking in the shadows, Susanna's imminent danger not only forces Kit to choose between his better judgment and his heart, but he must also embrace the life to which he swore he would never return.
