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.
And now, my review:
I found Storing Up Trouble by Jen Turano to be a very
romantic read. I loved the characters,
the intriguing plot, and how she pulled it all together as a masterpiece. I love to laugh and there were so many laugh-out-loud
moments in this one. My favorite part
was her use of Isaiah 30:21. This is one of my favorite authors and I was once
again not disappointed in her work. If
you like fiction at its best, you’ll want to get this one.
I received a copy of this book in exchange for my honest
review.
