A Proper Pursuit

I must say that when I started this book, I really wasn't sure if I would even stick with it to finish it. The only reason that I kept reading it all was because the writing was so good and intriguing. (It's written from first person perspective and you'll remember from my last review that I really don't care for first person perspectives) Usually about mid-way through a book, I can tell where the story is going. With this book, I wasn't sure. I love books that have a happy ending and tie things up neatly. I had no idea how this one was going to wrap up!

A little mystery, a little romance was exactly what Violet Hayes got when she left her father's home to search for her missing mother. She travels to Chicago to stay with her Grandmother and 3 great-aunts. My, her Aunts are characters. Austin had me wishing for Aunts just like them and then in the same breath being oh-so glad that I didn't! :o) Each of her Aunts has an agenda for her and it seems every one of them has a suitor for her as well.
Four men, three proposals, and a one big mystery make this book a must read!
