Review by Denver Patron |
| Elizabeth Holland is one of Manhatten's most fine citizens, so what would be more perfect than for her to be engaged to Henry Schoonmaker, William Schoonmaker's son? Well, many things would be more perfect for both of them, they just don't love each other. What extent will some people, not only Henry and Elizabeth go to to stop the wedding? Travel into Manhatten's depest secrets shared among sevant girls, socialite girls, and the gentlemen to find some of the deepest scandals to ever occur...
