Composer and Clarinetist Mark G. Simon makes his PARMA debut with his first-ever recorded album, Grecian Urn. All selections were composed by Simon, and he is the clarinetist on every track. "Anniversary Sonata" commemorates the 50th wedding anniversary of the composer's parents. "Angel Music," is a bright, yet sympathetic Broadway-style ballad with running eighth-note phrases marked by sentimental modulations, inspired by the congeniality of the composer's parents, his father's vocation as a minister, and the G.K. Chesterton quote, "Angels can fly because they take themselves lightly." Concluding the sonata is the progressive "Pleasant Hill," a sweet treasure that could easily be set to words to conclude what is the lounge-style, popular work with innate chamber music tendencies. "Un Buen Piola Porteño" is a tango/fantasia for clarinet and piano and fabulous in every way - from the transformative qualities of the clarinet's voicing through different octaves to the smooth, indelible, charismatic melody of the tune itself, fleshed out with the glittering harmonies of the piano. In "Ode on a Grecian Urn," Simon and Meir add soprano Linda Larson to their combo. In this setting of four of the five stanzas of the John Keats poem, in which the poet describes his visits to the British Museum, Simon reincarnates Keats' experience noting that "The poem's very existence to the power of art to affect people's lives." "Thou Still Unravished Bride," is reminiscent of an Argento song-delicate and complex, yet unforgiving. "Heard Melodies" is a torrent of surface emotions transpired into a popular folk tune. "Coming to the Sacrifice," is a haunting but spirited dance concluded with an extended instrumental fugue-in homage to J.S. Bach's own Musical Sacrifice (BWV 1097). "O Attic Shape," is an elegy directed to the Grecian Urn itself through which a harrowing soprano outcry lauds the Urn for it's beauty.

Loved
Format: Kindle
This story had me hooked from just the first few chapters. I literally could not put it down, I love a good forbidden love story and this was just *chefs kiss*.
I could feel the chemistry between Ana and Rachel from the moment they met. Their conversations are so well written, I loved the banter between them both. The drama throughout the book had me saying "just one more chapter before I take a break". I appreciated that you can tell that the author was knowledgeable about both of the main characters profession and religion and that the book took a focus on recognizing the characters differences and showing Ana take the time to learn about Rachel's religion. That was such a great touch that I loved.
The only reason that I gave this book 4 stars instead of 5 is that the resolution of the drama and story seemed a bit anticlimactic. There was all this tension from secrets kept that once they came out both characters seemed to move on and get their happily ever after.
Overall, I loved this book and its characters. I definitely will be picking up any book that this author puts out!

Amazing read!
Format: Kindle
I loved this book so much! I might be a little biased because I loved the first one so much and I’ve been dying for Ana to get happy ending ever since, but it was definitely a good book all around.
Ana and Rachel were absolutely perfect for each other. They have the kind of opposing personalities that fit together like a puzzle. Where Rachel was a little more reserved and polished, Ana was more outgoing and messy. They didn’t clash, they completed each other. I’m not going to lie, love that they’re a doctor and a lawyer because they’re giving sapphic power couple.
I also loved all of the supportive family members and best friends in this book. Stella and Charlotte were super cute and I hope we get to see them again in a later book.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book and I’d recommend it to anyone looking for an opposites attract, doctor/lawyer romance. This is the second book that I’ve read from Morgan and it seems like she doesn’t miss.

Sapphic Lawyer and Doctor
Format: Paperback
I loved this book… which is why I was very disappointed when the conflict was “solved” so easily and lowkey brushed past. We are waiting for this secret to come out that Rachel has been holding onto. There’s obviously conflict of interest with Ana and Rachel. But the way they solved it? I didn’t feel like it was realistic and it felt like both women were like, “Okay, that’s over, everything is kosher now(pun intended?). It honestly prevented me from giving it 5 stars. The ending seems so rushed.
But other than that, I loved both characters! I loved learning about Jewish culture and loved how the author portrayed it. Both MCs are fleshed out, in depth characters. The author had a good balance of humor

Enjoyable Doctor, Lawyer Romance
Format: Paperback
A very enjoyable and engaging story. The medical and legal aspects of this story was very fascinating. I never get tired of reading romances that are about those troupes. The romance between the main characters was very sweet with not A lot of drama or angst. Sometimes I prefer A story with less drama and angst. I like when characters in A story can be reasonable and work out their problems without all the drama. Ana and Rachel are those characters. There's A few witty moments in this book that made me smile and laugh out loud A few times throughout this story. The supporting characters were written well and helped to make this an even better reading experience. I will definitely be on the lookout for more books by this author.

So good
Format: Paperback
When your one-night stand turns out to be the surgeon that you subpoenaed for a malpractice lawsuit.
Ana, an unappreciated lawyer, has been passed up for promotion to her male colleagues yet again. A malpractice lawsuit win could be what she needs to finally get the promotion she’s worked so hard for. Rachel, a cardiac surgeon who goes above and beyond for her patients, is subpoenaed to testify in a malpractice lawsuit. Arriving at the law firm for her deposition, Rachel discovers that the lawyer for the family who filed the lawsuit is Ana Mendez. As in Ana, her one-night stand.
I was excited to get my hands on this one! I loved that Ana and Rachel were so different from each other in personalities, looks, backgrounds, and religions. The differences made them unique and interesting to me. The banter was well-written, and I loved how feisty they were towards each other in the beginning. Was the dirty talk unexpected? Very much so. I was not prepared for that or for how hot things had gotten. And while I did enjoy the spice, I would’ve liked for there to have been more communication about the conflict too. The references to The Golden Girls and The Sims? Oh, I totally geeked out over that! Overall, it was a good sapphic romance that I’m sure others will enjoy.
I’d like to thank NetGalley and Bold Strokes Books for the arc. This is my voluntary review.
