Cathy Marie Hake, best-selling author of Forevermore, tells the touching tale of a British governess who braves an 1890s Atlantic crossing to begin a new life in America. Seeking a brighter future, Millie books passage to New York aboard the Opportunity. When a widower scours the ship for a suitable nanny, he selects Millie from the crowds in steerage. He is standoffish at first, but soon Millie's tireless devotion to his motherless toddler begins to win him over.

    " Overall I really enjoyed this book...probably my favorite in the series...but the ending felt very rushed and not all the loose ends were tied up. Still, a great book, an easy read. "

    " I thought the introduction of a couple of characters in the middle of the book was odd (and underdeveloped)...until I looked at the listing of her other books and realize they are the subjects of her previous books...which I haven't read. "

    " Another good romance, after Fancy Pants. Well-developed characters, kept me wrapped in the story all day yesterday. But still: Millie, Daniel, Isabelle- they seem a little stereotypical. Sweet ending. I'd reccommend it, but Fancy Pants was, I think, a little better. "
