Evelyn Watt ends up working in Vienna Austria for four months helping Rudy Moser prepare family heirlooms for auction all because she fell in love with him at first sight.  The auction will be held on the same night as the Opera Ball on Valentine's Day.  But once in Vienna Evelyn starts to fall in love with the city, the music, the antiques and the Einspanner coffee at Cafe Mozart where she meets Klaus Bauner mainly because she had stolen his table at the Cafe. Whom Evelyn kind of compares to Professor Friedrich Bhaer from Little Woman.
The more Evelyn spends time with Klaus and falls in love with the city of Vienna the more she starts to see Rudy for who he really is. When an old secret comes to light involving Ruby's family as well as the family of a friend of Klaus, Evelyn is thorn on what to do. But in the end she makes the right choice, but at a cost to her. But what she ends up gaining is so much more. 

Reading Love in Three Quarter Time its easy to fall in love with the city of Vienna Austria.  It's also apparent that Rachel did her research on the city.  I have to say that it took me a bit to warm up to Evelyn but l loved Klaus from the start.  This is Novella is the first Contemporary    novel from Rachel and the first in a series of three. But it is not the first book I've read by her. I enjoyed her Herringford and Watts Mysteries series and well as the first book in the new Van Buren and DeLuca mystery series.   I've come to enjoy Rachel's writing style and know that she puts a lot of research into her novels, starting with trips to those cities for in person search.  Rachel her are a clean enjoyable read, and I look forward to reading the next book in this series. Rose in Three Quarter Time.
