Oh, I just love Basil and Temperance! He's plain yummy, and she's a spitfire. They each had me smiling right from the start.  Ms. Lower has a decided knack for placing the reader solidly in the era of pre-Civil War America, as well as a knack for creating compelling, funny and original characters. Her first two books in this series, The Abolitionist's Secret and The Reluctant Debutante begin the tale of the Fitzpatrick siblings, and while I loved the second, I realize to my chagrin that I have not read the first. That will be next on my list, and I can hardly wait! I don't always read every book in a series, but these are fun, compelling and uplifting. Who could/would resist an author who always puts a smile on your face while weaving a truly good story? Very well done.This reviewer received an ARC from the author in return for an honest review, which is given as a professional courtesy and without monetary compensation.
