She walks In Beauty by Siri Mitchell

Clara is the beautiful daughter of a widowed doctor in the late 1800's. Her aunt decides to have Clara debut a year earlier than she was expecting and Clara is quickly spending all of her time learning how to behave and fit it with high society. Her father and aunt expect her to win the proposal of the most wealthiest bachelor, so that she will be fully accepted into high society and have money. Her two biggest problems are learning all she needs to know in a short amount of time and dealing with her best friend who is also debuting and is expected to get married to the same man. Clara struggles through out the season with her feels of marrying for love or doing what her father and aunt tell her must be done. While struggling with these feelings she learns some upsetting things about her mother's death and her father's business choices. This book was a wonderful book. I was drawn and captivated to it from first page to the last. I loved her descriptions of every scene and the interactions between the character's seem so real. I would highly suggest this book and I am looking forward to reading more from this author.

This was a free book from the publisher.
