Book One (Wealth & Privilege)
Boy meets girl, falls in love at first sight. Oops,

find his voice. He knows that no one gets to capture their own muse, but he can
dream, can't he...?
Book Two (Brains & Beauty)
Girl meets boy, falls in love at first sight. Kind
of unfortunate for a married woman. He becomes her best friend, the only man in
her life that she can really count on. She wishes there could be more to it.
There can't be, but she can dream, can't she...?
Teatime
and Books Review:
I read both books and was amazed by both for their
historical accuracy. I grew up not far from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and am
very familiar with the city as well as its history and can say these books were
well researched. The characters were well developed and one couldn’t help but
feel a sorrow for both the Heroine and Hero as they truly wanted to love one
another but circumstances in their lives prevented them from expressing and
engaging in that love. Our hero, Thomas was trapped in a marriage by a very
selfish Meredith who wanted him only for his money. She and her mother created
a scheme to trap her and Thomas in a most embarrassing and compromising
situation in the eyes of society therefore leaving Thomas with the only
solution but to marry her. However, he knew her scheme and expressed that to
her on their wedding day and made it known to Meredith that he did not love her
and would not engage in the marital act of love. Instead he developed a most
deep and quite intimate friendship with our Heroine, Regina Waring who is
unfortunately married and not happily either. She too feels her heart drawn to
Thomas but alas she can’t give it. Both engage in a deep and cherished
friendship.
These books take one through the historical
happenings of the time and the characters are well developed and well rounded.
Only thing is they end pretty abruptly rather coming to a true conclusion.
Otherwise, wonderful stories!
