Wilhelmina used to be popular in New York's society, but since her father lost his fortune, she's been demoted to the wallflower section. She's at a ball when she catches a glimpse of her childhood friend, Edgar. She regrets the way she reacted to his proposal of marriage years ago, but she's not ready to face him. The consequences of her "hiding" don't wok out quite the way she intended, and Edgar doesn't just find her, he finds her in an amusing predicament.
These two spend a little time together. Edgar also has regrets about the proposal, but now he wants to make things right with Wilhelmina before pursuing marriage.
I'm not saying much else, it is a novella. As always, Turano writes some quirky but lovable characters. The story is sweet and had me smiling more than once. This story is free and includes a peek at the upcoming novel. So if this interests you at all, I recommend you pick it up. If you've never read Turano's writing style before, it's a great way to see if it's something you'll enjoy. I personally am always looking forward to what she writes next.
We do meet Permilia and Asher, the main characters in Behind the Scenes, and watch them immediately butt heads. That interaction was so cute, that I'm anxiously anticipating Behind the Scenes. Good novella!
