About the Book:
The Bridal Shop
Alice Turner, the owner of one of Charleston’s finest bridal shops, is determined never to be dependent on a man for anything after the disgrace of her father’s prison time. When her best friend requests Alice to be her maid of honor, she reluctantly sets aside her feelings on marriage and dons a stylish bridesmaid’s gown, never intending to catch the eye of the handsome groomsman. Will he be able to convince Alice to open her heart again?
Miss Beaumont’s Companion
When Italian lady’s companion Aria St. Angelo is coerced into posing as her political employer’s absent daughter for the evening at the Louisiana Governor’s masquerade ball, she wasn’t planning on falling for Byron Roderick—the most eligible bachelor in the capitol. But, when he pays call at the Beaumont’s home, Aria is quickly shuffled into the shadows once more, forced to watch him fall in love with another woman.
The Becoming of Miss Blanche
Content to remain a Harvey Girl forever, fiery Tacy Blanche has worked in nearly every Harvey House down the Santa Fe line. But, when she accepts the position of second waitress at the new Montezuma resort, Tacy isn’t expecting her former fiancé’s brother to return to her life—
Pinkerton Jasper Caffery had long abandoned hope of ever finding Tacy again, but while on holiday in New Mexico, Jasper collides with the woman who had never noticed him before. He decides to take his chances and attempt to woo her. However, when Tacy’s past catches up with her, more than Jasper’s heart is at stake.
My Review:
I enjoyed reading these short stories that have it all: interesting plots, great characters, and a clean romance. Ms. Hitchcock’s pace was excellent, they were not too fast to seem unrealistic for the romance. Each story is unique and well crafted.
I recommend this book to young and mature readers alike. There is sure to be at least one story you will love, but I think you will find it hard to pick your favorite from the three excellent stories. Why not consider reading this with your daughter and you mother? This would be a fun book for all of you to read together.
I received a complimentary copy of this book. I was not expected to write a positive review. All opinions are my own.
