HTML:<b>For fans of HBO's <i>The Gilded Age</i>, explore the dazzling world of America's 19th century elite in this lush series of sparkling, page-turning love stories...</b><br /> <b>A desperate shop girl finds protection—and passion—in the arms of a wealthy stranger . . ."Nothing makes me happier than a new book by Joanna Shupe." —Sarah MacLean, <i>New York Times-</i>bestselling author of <i>Daring and the Duke</i></b><br /> <br /> <i>RITA® Finalist for Best Novella</i><br /> <br /> Standing on the platform at Grand Central Depot, Ted Harper is surprised by a fiery kiss from an undeniably gorgeous damsel in distress. He's certain she's a swindler who's only after his money, but he's never met a woman so passionate and sure of herself. Disarmed, he invites her to spend the journey to St. Louis in his private car—perhaps against his better judgment . . .<br /> <br /> Clara Dawson has long known how to take care of herself, but the savvy shop girl is at a loss when she witnesses—and becomes entangled in—a terrible crime. Desperation propels her into a stranger's arms at the train station, but she hadn't expected Ted to offer her the protection she so badly needs—nor did she expect their chemistry to develop more steam than the engine of the train. He's everything she never thought she could have, and she's everything he didn't know he wanted. But as her secrets begin to unfurl, their fledgling romance could be in danger of derailing before they arrive at the next station.<br /> <br /> <b>Acclaim for the Knickerbocker Club novels:</b><br /> <br /> "A rapid-fire plot and a smoldering love story produce Gilded Age gold." —<i>Kirkus Reviews</i><br /> <br /> "A tremendously entertaining romance—sexy and clever—set in an era the genre has been waiting for." —Sarah MacLean, <i>New York Times-</i>bestselling author of <i>The Season</i>.
