"Emilia Salvini dreams of marrying a man who loves music as much as she does. But in 18th-century Milan, her position as "second sister" means she'll likely be sent off to a convent instead. Ironically, Emilia's pious older sister, Maria, would gladly become a nun. But Father won't allow it--her brilliant language skills are too important to his quest for noble status" -- Google Books.

This beautifully written Young Adult novel centers around the strong faith of two sisters, Emilia and Maria, and their extraordinary talents. The book is set in 18th Century Milan, Italy and focuses on their relationships with their father, as well as their struggle to follow the paths they believe God wants them to take.
