June is the youngest, prettiest and most vivacious of the five highly desirable daughters of a successful business man who, with a will of iron and principles of steel, decides that they will only marry the husbands he approves of, and only as and when he considers it appropriate for them to do so.
For the daughters who comply with his wishes there will be guaranteed social status and a life of financial ease; for those who defy him there will be disgrace and disinheritance.
When the heart-stoppingly handsome, fabulously gifted and European-educated Mr. Piano Man comes to town, there is no question that he is a suitable suitor, and June's elder sister, Minnelsa, has been identified as next in line for the wedding bells. However it is the physically irresistible and wilfully spirited June who makes the Piano Man's joints jive and fingers itch, and the attraction is mutual, not to say volcanic.
So which music will the Piano Man play - the traditional waltz or the good-time get-down-and-boogie? Will he live a life of adventure or a life of security?
Will love conquer all, or will all conquer love, and life?
