This book is available on Kindle, as are many of Grace's masterpieces. This story is the third book in a trilogy, although each can stand alone. The three books are set in a time before even Grace's time, spanning from about 1831 to 1849. The first book is Marcia Schuyler, published in 1908. The sec

It starts with pert, no nonsense Miranda Griscom looking across the way to the Whitney mansion. When his second wife died, the cold, emotionless owner of that mansio
Oh, wait...not that Miranda!
Seriously, though, I enjoyed this one.
I'm such a sap for Grace Livingston Hill books, and this is one of her best; the whole trilogy is fantastic. It doesn't get overly preachy like some of her other books, it is just about really vivid characters dealing with everyday life in the 1800s. I love how she ties in current events such as the
