Synopsis

Having grown up on the mean streets of nineteenth-century London, Caroline St. James is used to fighting to survive.So when her beloved mother—abandoned and ignored by her wealthy family—suddenly dies, the scrappy twenty-two-year-old devises a plan to right this terrible wrong. With nothing to lose, she sails to New York to find the man who turned a cold shoulder to her mother’s suffering: Caroline’s grandfather. To settle the family score, Caroline infiltrates her grandfather’s privileged world, hoping to sabotage his business from the inside. But as she sets her plot in motion, she meets Jackson Montgomery, a virtuous man who is struggling to recover from a family scandal of his own. As their friendship grows, and Caroline begins to piece together the motives that led her family to turn its back, she is forced to make a decision: Should she risk everything in the name of justice? Or can she look toward the future and let love and forgiveness guide her instead?

Goodreads review by Stacy on June 20, 2016

I almost hated it. The characters were okay, but it felt like we were reading the same words over and over. The ending really angered me, too. I felt like I invested a lot of time to a weak story only to have all the good things about it snatched away in the end. It was a disappointment.......more
