Masquerade by Nancy Moser
Eighteen eighty-five, New York City. Charlotte Gleason, a rich heiress from London, travels to America to escape her tedious life by marrying the even wealthier Conrad Tremaine. Deciding, however, that an arranged marriage is not for her, she arranges for her maid, Maureen, to take her place. What begins as the whim of a spoiled rich girl wanting adventure becomes a test of survival amid poverty beyond Charlotte's blackest nightmares. As for Maureen, she lives a fairy tale complete with a prince-yet tormented by a wicked mother-in-law-to-be. Will their masquerade be discovered? Or will one of them have second thoughts? There is no guarantee the switch will work. It's a risk. It's the chance of a lifetime.
Nancy Moser is the award-winning author of twenty-five novels that focus on the characters discovering their unique purpose. Her genres include both contemporary and historical stories. Her historical bio-novels allow real women-of-history to share their life stories: Just Jane (Jane Austen), Mozart's Sister (Nannerl Mozart), Washington's Lady (Martha Washington) and How Do I Love Thee? (Elizabeth Barrett Browning.) Her historical romance An Unlikely Suitor was named to Booklist's Top Ten Romance Novels of 2011. Her time-travel novel, Time Lottery, won a Christy Award, and Washington's Lady was a finalist. Her contemporary books are known for their big-casts and intricate plotting. Some titles are The Seat Beside Me, Weave of the World, The Sister Circle, The Invitation and The Good Nearby. Nancy and her husband live in the Midwest. She's earned a degree in architecture, traveled extensively in Europe, and has performed in numerous theaters, symphonies, and choirs. She knits voraciously, kills all her houseplants, and can wire an electrical fixture without getting shocked. She is a fan of anything antique-humans included.
