Delightful Blend of Love and Laughter in Turano's Sophomore
Novel
Miss Arabella Beckett has one driving passion: to help the
downtrodden women of America. Naturally, she supports the
women's suffrage movement and eagerly attends rallies and
lectures across the country. On her travels, she makes a
simple offer of assistance to a young woman in need that
goes sadly awry and lands both ladies in more trouble than
they can manage. An independent sort, Arabella is loath to
admit she needs help and certainly doesn't need help from an
arrogant, narrow-minded knight in shining armor.
Mr. Theodore Wilder, private investigator extraordinaire, is
on a mission. A mission that began as a favor to his good
friend Hamilton Beckett, but swiftly evolved into a merry
chase across the country. By the time he finally tracks down
Hamilton's sister, Arabella, he is in a less than pleasant
mood. When the lady turns out to have radical ideas and a
fiercely independent streak, he soon finds himself at his
wit's end.
When they return home to New York, circumstances force their
paths to continue to cross, but the most peculiar feelings
growing between them certainly can't be love. When the
trouble Arabella had accidentally stirred up seems to have
followed her to New York and threatens her very life, the
unlikely couple must face the possibility that they might
have landed in the most peculiar circumstance of all: love.
