Publisher's summary

Sheltered since birth at her Kentucky home, Rowena Ballantyne has heard only whispered rumors of her grandfather Silas's vast fortune and grand manor in Pennsylvania. When her father receives a rare letter summoning him to New Hope, Rowena makes the journey with him and quickly finds herself in a whole new world-filled with family members she's never met, dances she's never learned, and a new side to the father she thought she knew. As she struggles to fit in during their extended stay, she finds a friend in James Sackett, the most valued steamship pilot of the Ballantynes' shipping line. Even with his help, Rowena feels that she may never be comfortable in high society. Will she go her own way...to her peril?

Great Author

I love the way she writes, so descriptive, it’s like you’re right there in the middle of the story with the characters.

Book 3 just as good as first two

3rd book I've read in this series and liked it just as much as books #1 & #2. Great characters & story. Clean, yet romantic. Would read more from this author.

Masterful tie up of multiple plots

I had concerns about this third novel. It started so far from where the second one left off, I thought there wasn’t any way to satisfy my curiosity about the plot line. To my delight, not only did the story tie everything together, it did so with so many twists, I felt my emotions were on a rollercoaster! I loved it!

Love's Fortune

I have enjoyed this series so much that I hate to see it end. The narrator was very good too, I liked the fact that she used different voices for the characters in the book.

Stepping into the past

Always enjoy the colorful characters and the quotes from my favorite authors like Jane Austen and Mark Twain. I loved the Rowena and James characters. I like stepping back in time with Laura Frantz's books.
