Not Another Love Song

Just interesting enough to push through the times I'd consider a DNF, but I was a band nerd til the end of high school. The characters aren't fleshed out beyond being really good musicians. Which sort of worked since that's what mattered to them both, until the plot shoved them together entirely because “you're so talented and you insult me constantly, it's hot.” And then shoved them apart for the obligatory breakup and woe, and then back together. 

Gwen getting first violinist simply for being young and pretty with a “story we can sell” seemed unlikely with the board involved - sure, it'd help, but that would be more believable if it was only the call of the jerk conductor. And the storyline of the conductor being a jerk (and about nobody reading their contracts at all or even having a friend do it) got lightly tedious quickly. I mean, those storylines seem plausible, it's just a really easy “look, he's a villain” approach. But this wasn't bad, I may read more from this author sometime.
