About this ebook

The year is 1835 and Carolina Adams finds herself enchanted by an unlikely suitor...the railroad. Frustrated by society's expectations upon her gender, she longs to study more masculine subjects and is thrilled when her father grants her a tutor.

James Baldwin arrives to serve as Carolina's teacher, but of more importance, he is to court Carolina's beautiful older sister, Virginia. Will expectations--and Virginia's southern charm--elicit the hoped-for proposal? Or will James and Carolina dare to acknowledge the mutual interests and feelings growing between them?

Unless you're interested in endless description of the history and mechanics of railroads, don't read this. I skipped many pages to get to the real events. Disappointed!

I really enjoyed everything but I would come across pages missing while reading. It was more of a nuisance than anything.
