Despite having a warm and loving adoptive family, Cleo needed to know her origins. She was given a story where her father was the Prince of Wales and despite being skeptical she clung to the possibility. The timing might be realistic.
She longs for a life beyond the constraints of ballgowns and conventional marriage. In fact, Cleo has quite a talent for designing jewelry. Will she be allowed to expand on that talent or will she be forced by convention?
Her childhood companion has remained a stalwart friend and he is now going off to war and the feelings this stirs in her are confusing to say the least. But there are more important things to deal with at the moment than her love life; like will any of them survive the war, will she be able to design the jewelry she wants to design, and can she be of any assistance to the War effort.
To learn the answer to any and all of these questions you will have to read this very engaging and dare I say sparkling novel. As someone who used to design and make jewelry – albeit not with the kind of stones that Cleo used – I understood the allure of a colorful gemstone or a sparkling facet.
The characters are diverse and well defined and the story is not your typical War tale. The romance is also not derivative which just made for a truly delightful way to spend a day reading a book.
