William Tracy and Oisin Costigan meet as teenagers and fall desperately in love. It takes them twenty years to admit it.

Book I: A Prima Vista

A prima vista: at first sight.

William Tracy is a teenage cello prodigy living under the control of his strict parents. His mentor has convinced the Tracy parents to let him record an album with her quartet in Dublin, Ireland, and to let William stay with their producer and his teenage son while they're there. The magic of freedom, creativity, and even first love gives William the courage to follow his dreams, at least until his parents find out.
