Dal Segno

De: Jax Meyer

Narrado por: Stephanie Murphy

On the verge of turning 40, former Marine Cameron "Cam" Warren didn’t expect to be walking onto a community college campus to spend a year playing music. Instead of enjoying her career, Cam is still mourning the tragic death of her partner and fellow Marine Sharon. Five years have now passed but she is no further forward in dealing with her grief. Cam knows she needs to change so she can heal. Will taking a sabbatical to play the drums allow her to live fully again, connecting her to emotions in ways her autism has always prevented?

Jazz pianist and teacher Laura Clark has had enough of city life on the east coast and yearns for the quiet beauty of Colorado. When a faculty position opens at a small community college in Ft. Collins, she jumps at the chance to start a new life. However, what she couldn’t predict was that one of her star students was about to walk back into her life, 20 years later.

When Cam is introduced to the new jazz ensemble director she is shocked to see her high school music teacher, a thousand miles away from the small town where Ms. Clark first introduced her to jazz. But Cam is no longer a kid, and as their chemistry grows stronger, Cam has to choose which path her life will take - will she choose love or will she choose fear?

Dal Segno is a lesbian romance that shows the power of revisiting the past to create a completely different result. Everything changes the second time around....

Great story!

This was a great story! The writer did an excellent job in describing Cam’s feelings as a woman with autism. It was thoughtful and well written. The character of Laura was also very well written. A beautifully depicted May-December relationship. The narrator did an excellent job in her reading of the story. Well done!

Excellent Audio!

I loved Dal Segno. The audio is as good, if not better, than the book. I like the idea that Cam is taking a breath in her adult life. Taking time to check in with herself and making sure of her direction and purpose. Stephanie Murphy does an excellent job with the narration.

Good story

It was nice to listen to a story with a neurodivergent MC and a romance with an age gap. It didn’t follow the formula and was refreshing. Well done.

All-around great read

As an autistic person, I thought the author did a great job portraying Cam. She wasn't a savant, just a regular person who happened to be autistic. I also appreciated that Laura was bisexual, as that part of the LGBT spectrum seems to be overlooked in lesfic. The story was great, and I'm looking forward to checking out more from Jax Meyer. Also, the narrator was wonderful.

Enjoyable Read

Great debut novel. A very emotional story with charming, believable characters. It flows well with so many emotions, the ghostly visits during Cams dreams were a nice addition to the story. I enjoyed that the characters were older and that the romance took time to build. The telling of what Cam had to go through because of her autism in dealing in social settings was a great addition to the story. Great building of the characters and story line. Was well worth listening to.
