Romance and mystery intertwine at the turn of the 20th Century.

It is the dawn of a new century and Olivia Stewart is heiress to an empire. Her family numbers among the Four Hundredâ??those considered the wealthiest and most distinguished in America. Unfortunately their wealth has nearly disappeared, and now their security rests upon the Stewart daughters marrying well.

Olivia's sister, Eleanor, was engaged to Harrison Bennett, one of the nation's wealthiest men, but has since died. Now the pressure is on Olivia to take her place, despite her suspicions about Eleanor's fiancé. Using her family's long-forgotten English title, Olivia travels to Mercy Falls, California, as Lady Devonworth, hoping to learn more before committing to marriage. There she finds that Eleanor's death was no accident. And Harrison is not the man she thought he would be.

When Mercy Falls holds a charity masquerade ball to raise funds for the new lighthouse, secretsâ??and truths long hiddenâ??will be revealed. But can Harrison really love Olivia when he discovers her true identity? Can she live with the repercussions of failing her family, or will she finally realize that nothingâ??not money, family, or romanceâ??will ever compare to God's unconditional love?

    I had picked this book up several times at the bookstore but had not yet purchased it, so I was glad to get it as a review copy from B&B Communications!

    This book is engaging from page one, drawing readers into another world. After the sudden and tragic death of her father and then the mysterious and untimely death of her sister Olivia Stewart vows to find answers. She is being asked to marry the man that was supposed to marry her sister in order to secure her family's social status and bankroll. This journey turns out to be more than she expected. Falling in love with the one man she has vowed never to love and finding an unexpected sibling. The twists and turns are great. The reader is always on edge trying to figure out who the murderer is and hoping that Olivia's secret identity is not blown. I loved this book. Often I found myself holding my breath and then only moments later laughing at the couple that are falling love.

    Thank you for this review copy. ( )

    This third book of the trilogy centers on Olivia Spencer and her quest to uncover the mysterious drowning death of her sister. She meets her sister’s ex-fiancé, and after an initial mistrust, finds herself liking him more and more. Secrets and deceit abound in this novel and all are touched by danger. It’s a satisfying conclusion to the series, with a well written plot and interesting characters. Author Colleen Coble knows how to tell a story that is entertaining and captivating, and stays in the inspirational genre without being preachy. ( )
