An Unlikely Suitor (Gilded Age #2)
Nancy Moser
Lucy Scarpelli, an Italian dressmaker from New York, befriends socialite Rowena Langdon as she's making her summer wardrobe. It's an unlikely friendship, but one that Rowena encourages by inviting Lucy to the family mansion in Newport, Rhode Island.
Grateful for Lucy's skill in creating clothes that hide her physical injury, Rowena encourages Lucy to dream of a better future.
One day Lucy encounters an intriguing man on the Cliff Walk and love begins to blossom. Yet Lucy resists, for what Newport man would be interested in an Italian dressmaker working to support her family?
Rowena faces an arranged marriage to a wealthy heir she doesn't love. Dare a crippled girl hope for better?
And Lucy's teenage sister, Sofia, takes up with a man of dubious character. Can love blossom? Should it?
