I like this author but really enjoyed this series of books that take place during the time of, and after the city of Chicago fire of 1871. Great series if you can get them to read.

I really enjoyed this; I liked how the love between parents and child was portrayed. The historical info on the Great Chicago fire was interesting but did not overpower the love story.

Susan Wiggs is an excellent story-teller. This trilogy was fascinating. I don't normally read historical novels - I usually prefer contemporary themes - but this trilogy, and this book in particular - is wonderful! A must read!

The 3rd book in Wiggs's Chicago Fire Trilogy. Story of Lucy Hathaway as she worked for women's equality even in the 1870's. Very good book.

It is one of the few historical romance books I really liked. Has a great beating the odds kind of story.
