Publisher's summary

A rags-to-riches saga set in the Gilded Age.

When Eliza Chapman, a London ladies maid, learns that her real father is one of the richest men in New York City, her whole world changes. He has sent a one-way ticket for her to join him, his mother and his two daughters at his palatial Manhattan mansion.

Eliza suddenly has her own ladies maid and learns that she is expected to find a husband. As the social season gets underway, she is swept into a whirl of teas, luncheons, balls and other events. But her sisters see her as unwelcome competition, which makes her feel even more like a fish out of water. And Eliza is in no rush to get married...to anyone.

As Eliza settles in she meets new people—among them Minnie—a brilliant married friend, who is a gifted and driven investor. Perhaps Eliza can aspire to more than just finding a husband?

A tragedy leads to a shocking turn of events and Eliza finds her world turned upside down, again.

the strength the women carried.

that Alice ended getting what she deserved and that Eliza got everything she wanted and more and was actually able to know her father and grandmother and know she was a lot like him.

A quasi Cinderella story

This book is an easy, beach read. Narration is just fair & the story is simplistic. Still, it’s a pleasant, if unrealistic read.

I really love the main character and I would really like to see a sequel and what goes on with some business and a more modern marriage.
