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.

Thankfully the story doesn’t end with a cliffhanger

Another nice story for the series. Pretty much follows the same pattern in each story but with different characters and different dramas. But this one closes the story nicely.

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.

I loved the series.

I loved this series. I just wish the ending was a Little more... I really don't know how to explain it, I just needed things wrapped up a little more. We spent so long with this family, And I loved the characters. It was well thought out story. I just felt like the very ending needed a little bit more info About the family, I won't say where they were, but just maybe that first night when everyone was together, or something.

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.
