I was very much in love with The Cellist and having the characters’ stories continue with Clef Notes was a total blast! In general, this collection of stories based on the characters from The Cellist may give you answers about the actions of most of its characters . There are four more stories from four other couple aside from our beautiful boys – Roman, my book boyfriend Ben and there’s of course, Jaxton.
Here are my individual reviews for each couple’s story.
Captivate Me: Jalen + Piper
I didn’t get the deal with Piper’s change in demeanor at first. At least it was insta-lust for them and not some sort of “im-so-glad-i-found-you-because-youre-my-soulmate” kind of thing.
@10% I was a bit wondering about their “ten months of lingering kisses, careful caresses and lots of dates in public places…” 10 months with no sex – like all the way – at all?! And one of the main reasons is because HE IS TOO BIG. Smirk. And that’s according to Jalen himself.
Rating: 3/5
A Case Of The Ex: Stanton + Barry
I totally loved this one! I thought this could even be a full length novel but yeah – case closed. I just loved the whole thing about Stanton finally realizing his mistake when Barry asked him to be his “boyfriend.” It was just all so sweet in the end. My heart just melts with boys crying for lost love “)
Rating: 5/5
Off The Record: Bruno + Lyon
Yay at this development! Finally the “lyon” has settled down! I thought it was very short though and of course, Lyon was such a dick over Jaxton in the first book so it’s good that he finally has moved on.
Rating: 4/5
Cinnamon Kiss: Thayer + Castel
I honestly didn’t expect Thayer to get a space here. Atleast everything got cleared from Thayer’s perspective. I thought the whole thing with Castel was a bit rushed but I still enjoyed it more than Jalen’s and Lyon’s story.
Rating: 4.5/5
From The Heart: Roman + Ben + Jaxton
I’m still in love with these three! They have such explosive chemistry and it’s such a pleasure getting some insights on the progress of their relationship!
Rating: 5/5
So to sum this up, my total rating would be 4.3 stars! I was pleasantly surprised that I enjoyed Thayer’s story that much since everybody seems to hate him in the first book. Then there’s Stanton whom I didn’t seem to connect with before but his story ought to be a full-on novel in my opinion. And the ample sex scenes here are just oohh-I-think-Im-Gonna-Need-Some-Cold-Splash-Asap kind of thing because damn, they’re super freaking hot! This is a must-read for those who enjoyed The Cellist and if you haven’t picked it up – aarrrggghhh, do it now!
Rating: 4.3 out of 5 stars (I should add .2 and round this off to 5 because I just really loved Ben *wink*)

Clef Notes is a wonderful continuation of the characters stories from The Cellist. In this book, you get five short tales about the different couples and how they found their happily ever afters. I loved reading the different POV's and finding out the reasons behind why they acted the way they did. It answers all of those questions the reader may have had after reading the first book. It was well written and each story made me smile. I will definitely be reading more from this author.

💖 4.5 Stars.. The book continues after the first book "The Cellist". I recommend that you read in order to get what's going on in this book.
Okay this is in parts for each couple's story starting with Jalen & Piper, then Stanton & ?(sorry, no spoilers), Lyon & ?, Thayer & ?.
A great book I enjoyed, I loved all the parts but most of all Thayer's which was a wonderful surprise. Hot sexy scenes included with love, communication problems, sexy scenes. Parts of this included time jumps which I wasn't a fan off but it goes with the progression of the story. A beautiful ending of the story with all getting their HEA's.
*I received a copy and this is my honest review.
