About the Book
After a childhood as a street thief, Gabriella Goodhue thought she’d put her past behind her until a fellow resident at her boardinghouse is unjustly accused of theft. In the middle of breaking into a safe that holds the proof to prove her friend’s innocence, Gabriella is interrupted by Nicholas Quinn, the man she once considered her best friend–until he abandoned her.
After being taken under the wing of a professor who introduced him into society and named him as heir, Nicholas is living far removed from his childhood life of crime. As a favor to a friend, Nicholas agreed to help clear the name of an innocent woman, never imagining he’d be reunited with the girl he thought lost to him forever.
As Gabriella and Nicholas are thrown together into one intrigue after another, their childhood affection grows into more, but their newfound feelings are tested when truths about their past are revealed and danger follows their every step.

To Steal A Heart was so good and funny!
My first line today comes from The Red Canary by Rachel Scott McDaniel:
May 29, 1928. Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
“ From that day on, death was in my song.” Vera’s voice quivered as she ended her nightly number.
I enjoyed To Steal a Heart! Jen Turano has a gift at writing lighthearted stories! I posted the first line from Susan Sleeman’s Night Fall: “She was dying, and it was his fault.”
I need more time in my day/week/year so I can get to all of these great books!!
Happy Friday!
Over on my blog I am sharing the first line of Watercolors by Lorna Seilstad.
“Spring should be filled with the scents of apple blossoms and fresh rain, not of sweaty men, wet canvas, and diseased flesh.”

Happy Weekend! My first line is from “Once Upon a Silent Night” by Kimberly Rae Jordan:
