When Miss Beatrix Waterbury's Chicago-bound train ride is interrupted by
a heist, Mr. Norman Nesbit, a man of science who believes his research
was the target of the heist, comes to her aid. Despite the fact that
they immediately butt heads, they join forces to make a quick escape.
Upon
her arrival in Chicago, Beatrix is surprised to discover her supposedly
querulous Aunt Gladys shares her own suffragette passions. Encouraged
by Gladys to leave her sheltered world, Beatrix begins working as a
salesclerk at the Marshall Field and Company department store. When she
again encounters Norman on a shopping expedition, he is quickly swept up
in the havoc she always seems to attract.
But when another
attempt is made to part Norman from his research papers, and it becomes
clear Beatrix's safety is also at risk, they soon discover the curious
way feelings can grow between two very different people in the midst of
chaos.

My Review
Delightful, that is the word I would us to tell you about this book! It quickly became a page turner that you will be absorbed into, and smiling!
Yes, as we follow Beatrix on her travels, and job, yes job! What an eye opener for this young woman. Then the author gives us a mother coddled, brilliant Norman, and he doesn't realize what has actually shot him in the chest, and that is tongue in cheek!
This is the end of the series and I adore how the author brought back the characters from the previous books, they make cameos here! This book can be read alone, but as I said it is so good and uplifting of your spirit, you don't want to miss it!
I received this book through Net Galley and the Publisher Bethany House, and was not required to give a positive review.
