I am so enjoying this book. Growing up in Chicago, I was well aware of the tragic history of the Great Chicago Fire, but had never heard where those who were displaced went to live after the city burned. I also often wondered how all those lovely homes came to be in Lake Geneva but never connected the two.
Great story and a love story to boot! Anna the main character sparkles in this book, she’s strong and confident, and this author has a talent for revealing the inner thoughts of her characters. Anna is being forced into a marriage she does not want, and I am cheering her on to find her true love who was also displaced by the fire. I can’t imagine what comes next! I can’t wait to get home from work to keep reading it.
