First of all I have to say I did not complete this book.  It was so intense and I could not take another minute of it.  I was at 59% read on my Kindle and I had to let it go.There was so much drama with all of the characters that this book should have been a soap opera. Most of the characters were very shallow and really had no depth.  Selfishness ran abound in this book, it was like every person for himself in what I read.  Lucien although somewhat appealing was an alcoholic, who wants to fall in love with that??  Madeline apparently; however she did try really hard not too, but because she is a woman, she falls for that bad boy streak. Lucien tries to drown out his talent with drunkenness.  He stops playing music not because of his Father I think but more because of the lover who made fun him.This book was just too much to get through.  Had there been less the book would have been more.  I gave it a 3 stars because it held my intrest in the begining but then I could no longer get to the end, so that must say somwthing for the writer. I hope that somewhere along the way Lucien got to AA, and that Madeline walked away without a broken heart and was able to leave Lucien.
