What Readers Are Saying
Captivating Story!
★ ★ ★ ★ ★
Captivating story set in the 1950s. I was immediately drawn into this story of a young woman setting out in life and the challenges women faced in a male-dominated field. It is also a beautiful love story about a woman and two men, one of which is her fiance. A lot of research went into this book about photography and music.

An excellent read!

Reminds us that that lasting relationships are hard, and necessitate difficult decisions, and that success and personal growth sometimes requires throwing off the safe cape of conventionalism. I highly recommend this book.

Great Climax, Well Done!

A well written romance that develops like film in a photo bath. Sampling a few pages I came upon four guys dancing with one gorgeous chick and in a sensuous mambo!! Then, a few pages to the left there was this incredible and humorous capture of a giant ten inch wolf spider!! I dove in and couldn’t stop as the story developed like negatives in a photo bath.
