Ruby Newhouse is a fierce and fiery young flapper with a heart for justice and women’s rights.
This book was wonderful and I was not disappointed in the slightest.
It’s fast-paced, full of mystery and intrigue and an absolute page-turner. While romance isn’t at the forefront of this book, when it is there, your heart melts and you get butterflies just reading it.
I highly recommend this book to lovers of criminal justice, the dazzling 20s and strong female main characters.
