When eighteen-year-old Grace Campbell arrives in London in 1914, she’s unable to fulfill her family’s ambitions and find a position as an office secretary. Lying to her parents and her brother, Michael, she takes a job as a housemaid at Number 35, Park Lane, where she is quickly caught up in lives of its inhabitants—in particular, those of its privileged son, Edward, and daughter, Beatrice, who is recovering from a failed relationship that would have taken her away from an increasingly stifling life. Desperate to find a new purpose, Bea joins a group of radical suffragettes and strikes up an intriguing romance with an impassioned young lawyer. Unbeknownst to each of the young women, the choices they make amid the rapidly changing world of WWI will connect their chances at future happiness in dramatic and inevitable ways.

A belated birthday gift. Hope you like it!
Thank you eponine38 for this great wishlist book. I will have a hard time deciding which book to start on first between all the wonderful ones you sent. Thank you so much!
I started reading this book a few years ago. I got to page 96. I put the book down and realized I wasn't interested in finishing it. The plot just didn't grab me. So, it sat on my dresser for years. Now I need to let it go. Hopefully, someone else will enjoy the book.

I left the book on a bench outside the restaurant.
