Synopsis

The tranquillity of Nantucket Island offered poor but proud Lucie McNeil refuge, a place to dream about a better life. Her quiet existence as companion to an elderly couple was a blessing for the tragedy—haunted Irish immigrant. But all that changed when her employers' handsome, elegantly attired son stepped ashore. For she recognized him instantly as the owner of the Boston factory where a terrible fire had scarred her forever.

She knew she should hate Gabriel Hunter, yet she could not. She found herself drawn to the caring soul she sensed behind the ruthless façade he showed the world. And she could not help dreaming that such different people— a poor servant girl and a wealthy merchant prince—might somehow make a life together.

From Back: The tranquillity of Nantucket Island offered poor but proud Lucie McNeil refuge, a place to dream about a better life. Her quiet existence as companion to an elderly couple was a blessing for the tragedy-haunted Irish immigrant. But all that changed when her employers' handsome, elegantly attired son stepped as****. For she recognized him instantly as the owner of the Boston factory where a terrible fire had scarred her forever. I usually don't read inspirational books, because usually they are a bit hokey. But I really enjoyed Seaside Cinderella. Ms Schmidt did an excellent job of getting the feeling of the tenements of the poor immigrants, and the rich in Boston during the late nineteenth century I loved how Lucie never lost her faith in all of her trials and how Gabriel finally found his.
