Copper and Candles (Michigan Brides #1)

Felicity is not content in her well-to-do world. Life as a young lady of means may be fun, but Felicity wants to do more. Unfortunately, she finds that her position and wealth sometimes hinders her efforts to help those in need. So when a poor woman falls ill, Felicity determines to take her place and goes to work as a commoner in Detroit's dangerous factory district. Relationships become complicated, however, and Felicity finds herself falling in love with a worker from the copper refinery next door. She knows her family would never accept him as a suitor, but what's a girl to do? What she doesn't know is that Brandt has his own secrets and hides his identity just as carefully as she. Brandt and Felicity soon discover that deception--no matter how noble its intent--demands a price that even they, with all their resources, may not be able to pay. "Every way of a man is right in his own eyes: but the Lord pondereth the hearts." Proverbs 21:2
