A Washington Post Best Romance Novel of the Year: An “original and captivating” story of a self-made millionaire, a socialite, and an unlikely partnership (Publishers Weekly, starred review). New York City's Gilded Age shimmers with unimaginable wealth and glittering power. The men of the Knickerbocker Club know this more than anyone else. But for one millionaire, the business of love is not what he expected... Born in the slums of Five Points, Emmett Cavanaugh climbed his way to the top of a booming steel empire and now holds court in an opulent Fifth Avenue mansion. His rise in stations, however, has done little to elevate his taste in women. He loathes the city’s high-society types—but a rebellious and beautiful blue-blood just might change all that. Elizabeth Sloane’s mind is on more than the latest parlor room gossip. Lizzie can play the Stock Exchange as deftly as New York’s most accomplished brokers—but she needs a man to put her skills to use. Emmett reluctantly agrees when the stunning socialite asks him to back her trades and split the profits. But love and business make strange bedfellows, and as their fragile partnership begins to crack, they’ll discover a passion more frenzied than the trading room floor... “A beautiful romance.”—The Washington Post “A tremendously entertaining romance—sexy and clever—set in an era the genre has been waiting for.”—Sarah MacLean, New York Times-bestselling author of The Season “Readers will enjoy this entertaining romance about two people who refuse to let society dictate whom they love.”—Kirkus Reviews A Publishers Weekly Best Book of the Year Winner, RT Book Reviews Seal of Excellence Less
