What Money Can't Buy

The New Saleslady

De: Jean Jegel

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

Love at first sight is an improbable, preposterous notion, or is it?

Outwardly, Blake Atherton was a golden boy, clever, handsome, rich and successful in his own right. Used to getting what he wanted, Mr. Atherton might be setting his sights on the sweetly inept young saleslady he met on the way to Catalina. It was not in his nature to dawdle over decisions.

It’s 1911 and women are set to have the vote in California. Elsie Carroll fervently embraces all the opportunities newly available to women. She better. The words “dire straits” perfectly describe her present situation. With a widowed mother and four younger sisters to support, she might even consider improbable solutions to her predicament.

“Couldn’t put the book down. Suspense, drama and a history lesson all at once.”
“Unexpected turns and a delightful read.”
“I love the main characters, who are both very strong willed, the ups and downs of their relationship as it develops and the humorous way they engage each other.”
“Couldn't wait to see how it was going to end.”
“Blake Atherton is a fascinating leading character-smart, handsome and rich, but not without his flaws. Elsie Carroll is an innocent delight. You'll be glad you spent time with them.”
