Just Like Heaven (2011)
“He was not sure there were words that would be accurate, at least not in polite company. He was loath to call it music; in all honesty, it was more of a weapon than anything else.
In turn, he looked at each of the women. The governess seemed a little frantic, her head bobbing back and forth between the keys and her music. Daisy had her eyes closed and was weaving and bobbing, as if she were caught up in the glory of the—well, he supposed he had to call it music. Iris looked as if she wanted... to cry. Or possibly murder Daisy.
And Honoria . . .
She looked so lovely that he wanted to cry. Or possibly murder her violin.
She did not look as she had in last year’s musicale, when her smile had been beatific and her eyes aglow with passion. Instead she attacked her violin with grim determination, her eyes narrowed, her teeth gritted, as if she were leading her troops into battle.
She was the glue holding this ridiculous quartet together, and he could not have loved her more.MoreLess
