1893 . . . Alice Porterman is released from her duties as a maid and travels home to help her mother care for her sickly brother. But her mother and brother are not in their family home when Alice arrives and she learns the landlord, Albert Donahue, has evicted them into the harsh Boston winter. Alice goes in search of him and is surprised at what she finds.
Albert Donahue, an up-and-coming member of Boston’s elite, made his fortune through hard work and shrewd business deals. But his dreams of a family to share it with have not come true, perhaps until an impertinent young woman enters his home and won’t leave until she speaks to him.

My Review - 5 of 5 stars -
I really enjoyed this quick read. It was hard to put down. Alice was determined to right the wrongs done to her family and brave enough to face down the person she thought responsible. She had been hurt in the past by family but continued to make sure that the rest of the family was provided for. I loved her intellect and loyalty to mother and brother. She did not know how to handle Albert as he helped her fix the situation and showed so much kindness. He was so sweet and protective of Alice, wanted her to be part of his world, and was very persistent in his pursuit. I recommend this story.
This is my unsolicited review.
