This book was handed to me as "The Black Bridgerton" and that is sort of true. It has all the drama, all the romance and all the ball gowns. This book was a lot more serious though. For a big part, it is about equality and the scars of slavery, set in 1910. I am very impressed with this book and hope it will find a great audience.
