After a childhood as a street thief, Gabriella Goodhue thought she'd put her past behind her until a fellow resident at her boardinghouse is unjustly accused of theft. In the middle of breaking into a safe that holds the proof to prove her friend's innocence, Gabriella is interrupted by Nicholas Quinn, the man she once considered her best friend—until he abandoned her.
After being taken under the wing of a professor
who introduced him into society and named him as heir, Nicholas is living far
removed from his childhood life of crime. As a favor to a friend, Nicholas
agreed to help clear the name of an innocent woman, never imagining he'd be
reunited with the girl he thought lost to him forever.
As Gabriella and Nicholas are thrown together into
one intrigue after another, their childhood affection grows into more, but
their newfound feelings are tested when truths about their past are revealed
and danger follows their every step.

My Review ~ 4 STARS
In
classic Turano fashion, To Steal a Heart
is a funny, heartwarming tale filled with mystery and slightly (okay, maybe
more than slightly) crazy antics. I do enjoy the way this author is able to combine
unfortunate circumstances and comedy to a degree that I never feel too
overwhelmed by emotions. It’s entertainment, pure and simple.
Because
this is the first book in a new series, there are a lot of characters. Even
though I had a little trouble keeping them all straight in my head, I still
recommend this to fans of historical fiction.
I
received a copy from the author and publisher. No compensation has been
received.
