Helpful Score: 3
There are no spoilers in this review given that page one is the ending. Having said that, did you ever read a book that you REALLY want to change the ending? This book was the one for me. Keep in mind that this is a love story and a tragedy at the same time.
The Titanic is not the main focus of this bittersweet tale, but always a dark shadow in the back of the reader's mind.
Madeleine Force is the very young second Mrs. Astor. Her narration tells the story of her courtship & marriage to the wealthy John Jacob Astor, her rebuff by society and the eventual tragic end of their honeymoon voyage.
I had trouble putting this book down and it will stay with me for some time.
