| Born into affluence, Mia Stanley is a winsome socialite with a knack for matchmaking. She's also a writer for Godey's Lady's Book magazine, much to the disdain of her family—and their society friends. A proper young lady of her social standing isn't meant to labor in such a way, but Mia has always had a way with words… When her writing draws her into the world of downtrodden seamen's wives on Philadelphia's docks, Mia uncovers a scheme that puts her in harm's way. But her heart ends up on the line as well…. Has her determination to always make a match driven away the one man whose esteem she covets?
