Publisher Description

CBA best-selling author Tracie Peterson-acclaimed for more than six dozen gripping novels, including the Alaskan Quest finale Whispers of Winter-launches the first installment in a series that stars winsome, independent heroines. Featuring non-stop adventure, endearing characters, and surprising twists, this compelling tale of wholesome love transports listeners to the opulence and privation of 1852 Philadelphia. Charming young socialite Mia Stanley has a knack for matchmaking-and for sticking her affluent little nose into trouble. Much to the dismay of her proper parents and their highfalutin friends, she also writes for Goodey's Lady Book magazine. When her writing draws Mia into the seamy world of the downtrodden, she uncovers shocking secrets that threaten her safety. But as Cupid's arrow tugs her heart in an unexpected direction, she fears her reckless independence may have dashed all hope for true love. Barbara Caruso's exhilarating narration helps charm listeners with the excitement, fun, and romance of Peterson's captivating gem. "4.5 stars . the romance, humor and adventure are nonstop.

    " This story was basically a retelling of Jane Austen's Emma. The characters were somewhat flat and one dimensional and the storyline got largely predictable and repetitive after a while. The ending also seemed rushed and unsatisfying leaving some, albeit trivial, loose ends. Definitely nowhere near Peterson's best. "

    " I LOVED the main characters of this story, Mia & Garrett. I stayed up WAY too late last night finishing the last 1/3 of the book because I couldn't put it down. It's a wonderful love story w/ some action and suspense at the end. Garrett can be my knight in shining armor anyday. "

    " I like the era in which this is written, and it was a good story, but it dragged and didn't keep my attention like other authors do. It was very predictable, and although that's not a bad thing by itself, this one was too much so. I'm not sure what it was, and it was a good book, but not great. "

    " If you like sermons and interrupted confessions of love, then you'll love this. The story would have made a great short if you cut out all the repetitiveness. It's more focused on how we should reach out to the poor than on being an actual story. "
