Her path is decided for her, included who she is to marry. Intertwined with Tenley’s story, is Birdie Sheshorn, the daughter of old money. The book is about Tenley Roth, and now that she has a bestseller on her hands, her next book is due in three months. I’m not really sure what prompted me to pick up the book and then to finish it, but I am so glad I did. Then you had Jonas and Elijah and so many other characters.Īnd yet, despite the awkward start of this book, I loved it. And then, I’m thrust back in time to Birdie, and young woman, an heiress who is destined to marry for money and not love. From the beginning, I was thrust into an event for the main character, Tenley, and her honor in the publishing world. I was off-kilter and confused and not at all understanding what was going on. But the start of the story just threw me off. I have enjoyed previous books by Rachel Hauck, so I had grand expectations. Lunch time rolled around and I forfeited lunch, just to finish the book. And that includes, finding breaks during work to finish it. This is a book that once I really got started, I couldn’t stop. Trust me, you don't want to miss out on reading this book.
It is currently available for pre-order on Amazon. I hope you choose to pick up a copy of this book when it becomes available July 11. If you like a good love story you'll be thrilled with this book, it has not one but two love stories. What a beautiful testament of God's love. I ended up loving the way the story was told in two different time periods. Tenley gets more than she bargained for in Florida. Tenley leaves New York and travels to Florida, hoping the change of scenery will get her creative juices flowing again. Her estranged mother calls from Florida and asks Tenley to come help her while she undergoes treatments for cancer. She is paralyzed with fear that she won't be able to write this second book. She is under contract to write another novel and her deadline is quickly approaching. She has followed in her father's footsteps and written a bestselling novel.
Unfortunately she finds the social prejudices of the time make that an impossibility. She will only marry someone she loves, and her only aspiration is to write a novel and have it published. Birdie has very different plans for her future. One day she will replace her mother as the matriarch of New York society. Marry a well bred man from a good family and have several children.
Her mother has very definite plans for Birdie's future. Rachel Hauck has created not one but two characters I fell in love with.īirdie is an heiress who lives in the early 1900's. By the third chapter I was eager to find out what was happening in both Birdie and Tenley's lives and how the desk was going to connect them. I will admit that at first I wasn't a fan of the two parallel stories in the beginning. Wow! I loved this book! I think this might be Rachel Hauck's best book yet!
