Synopsis

Book 3 of the Calhoun Chronicles by #1 New York Times bestselling author Susan Wiggs

Washington, D.C., 1870s

At a glittering White House gala, Abigail Cabot discovers the man of her dreams. Only, he’s not interested...yet. So the gifted lady astronomer, whose passion for measuring stars has left her woefully lacking in social graces, seeks someone to educate her...someone who is a master at the art of seduction.

Jamie Calhoun’s handsome looks and easy charm have made him as popular on the Senate floor as he is with the capital’s most attractive women. But secretly he loathes the cynical, manipulative man he’s become. Initially, he befriends Abigail as a means to a political end. But somewhere along the way the plan goes awry.

First laughter and then love take them completely by surprise in this wildly romantic story. For a man convinced he’s incapable of love and a woman who believes she can reach the stars, could this be a match made in heaven?

Goodreads review by Sara

“I've spent more time with the stars than I have with society.” 3.5 stars. Years and years ago, I read Enchanted Afternoon by Susan Wiggs.

Goodreads review by Nabilah

The plot is original and refreshing, and the writing style is excellent. I disliked the hero, Jamie, intensely, though. Ooh, I want to throttle him for being so obtuse and not seeing what's in front of him (I've never liked this trait in a hero). He kept living in the past and betiding 'woe is me'.......more

:) uma historia bem engraçada que Susan Wiggs nos apresenta. com algum sentido de humor, mas acima de tudo com o realismo que afinal toda a historia de amor tambem deve conter. Abigail Cabot, filha de senador, mas com alguma "incapacidade" para o social enfrenta nesta historia um desafio a todas as co......more
