Synopsis
A clean and wholesome historical romance that will pull on your heartstrings and have you cheering for second chances, from USA Today bestselling author Tess Thompson.
In the spring of 1910, an advertisement in a Boston newspaper calls for a "wealthy family in need of a secretary on Whale Island. Must have an affinity for books." Amelia Frances jumps at the position — not realizing it's part of a matchmaking scheme arranged after the murder of patriarch Roland Tutheridge.
Her employer is Benedict Tutheridge, called the family "idiot" by his late father for his struggles with reading and numbers, and now unexpectedly responsible for running the family business. As Amelia and Benedict spend their days together, a romance blooms built on old-fashioned values and mutual understanding.
Book two of The Mystery Matchmaker of Ella Pointe series.
