Beatrice Von Furstenberg is a rich suffragette who refuses to give her 16-year-old niece permission to marry her 18-year-old suitor. So, the teens come up with a scheme to stage a mock robbery then a daring rescue of Beatrice's carriage. Attorney Connor Barrow agrees to help out with the crazy plan, never dreaming he would be responsible for Beatrice being locked up in a brothel. When she finds out how she ended up spending time in this brothel, she blackmails Connor into helping women get the right to vote.
I was disappointed with the first half of this book. I didn't care for the heroine and didn't see any sparks between the her and the hero. But, the story did get more interesting and you could finally see the relationship forming. My rating: 3.5 Stars.
