Book Description
Years of hard work enabled Douglas Shaw to escape a life of desperate poverty--and now he's determined to marry into high society to prevent reliving his old circumstances. But when Alice McNeil, an unconventional telegrapher at his firm, raises the ire of a vindictive co-worker, he must choose between rescuing her reputation and the future he's always planned.
My thoughts:
What a fantastic
start to the new series Love Along the Wires by Jennifer Delamere. I loved the story of Alice McNeil and Douglas
Shaw; she is a young telegrapher who is far more interested in a career than l marriage and children while he is concerned
with his social standing and desperately wants to marry into high society. That’s one of the many things I loved about this
storyline because in most novels the situations are reversed.
There was only one
character in the story that I didn’t like but he is supposed to be unlikeable,
so kudos to the author for crafting him perfectly because I truly found him to
be so annoying. I thoroughly enjoyed getting
to know the other characters and am anxious to read their stories as the series
progresses. I found this to be a delightful
and well written novel, full of humor, hard working delightful characters with
a sweet romance. If you are a fan of
historical romance novels you will want to get a copy of this one.
I voluntarily
reviewed a copy from the publisher. All opinions are my own.
