Rebecca, a housemaid for a wealthy New York family, would do anything to help her father, her only remaining family. To do so, she's willing to masquerade as an heiress and crash a ball being held by one of the most influential and wealthy family in the city. There she meets Christopher, a shipping magnate. She's drawn to him from the start, but fears he'll recognize her from one of his visits to her employer's home. He could expose her ruse, and plunge her life into ruin. Still, their paths keep crossing and her feelings for him grow despite her best efforts to keep him at a distance. Rebecca soon finds herself embroiled further in her father's troubles, and someone wants her dead.Christopher wants nothing more than to find out who murdered his best friend, and to bring the culprit to justice. He meets Rebecca at a ball he attended only for the purpose of gathering information. He finds her refreshingly unaffected by social status, and endearingly attractive. He cannot resist the attraction and is determine to pursue her—that is, until evidence points to her involvement in his friend's murder. I won't say anymore, except that I really enjoyed this fast-paced, historical romance/mystery and suspenseful tale set in New York in the 1800's. READ IT!
