title: An Honest Heart
author: Dacus, Kaye
description: Set during the Industrial Revolution and the Great Exhibition of 1851, An Honest Heart is a “sitting-room romance” with the feel of a Regency-era novel but the fashions and technological advances of the mid-Victorian age.
  
  Featuring dual romance stories, the main plot involves seamstress Caddy Bainbridge and the choice she must make between two men: one from the aristocracy, the other from the working class. Award-nominated author Kaye Dacus pinpoints the theme of honesty -- both men in this love triangle have deep secrets to hide, and Caddy's choice will be based on which of them can be honest with her.
  
  Courtship . . . cunning . . . candor. Who possesses an honest heart?
