Book Description

When Miss Beatrix Waterbury's Chicago-bound train ride is interrupted by a heist, Mr. Norman Nesbit, a man of science who believes his research was the target of the heist, comes to her aid. Despite the fact that they immediately butt heads, they join forces to make a quick escape.

Upon her arrival in Chicago, Beatrix is surprised to discover her supposedly querulous Aunt Gladys shares her own suffragette passions. Encouraged by Gladys to leave her sheltered world, Beatrix begins working as a salesclerk at the Marshall Field and Company department store. When she again encounters Norman on a shopping expedition, he is quickly swept up in the havoc she always seems to attract.

But when another attempt is made to part Norman from his research papers, and it becomes clear Beatrix's safety is also at risk, they soon discover the curious way feelings can grow between two very different people in the midst of chaos.


My Review

This is possibly one of the best books I have ever read from Jen Turano! I loved the plot, the twists in the story, and the interesting characters. Miss Beatrix Waterbury is surely one to keep you on your toes! Ever since learning of Beatrix from past books in this series, I had really been looking forward to hearing more of her story. And this book did not disappoint!

 I also really liked how many different locations were used in this story. Even though I love my other books by Jen Turano, they can sometimes feel like the whole book takes place in only a few locations. But this book feels much more fully rounded, and takes place in a lot of interesting places. I highly recommend this book!




I received this book free through NetGalley from Bethany House Publishers for my honest review. The opinions are my own.
