About the Book
Trying to escape the
shambles her con-man father has made of their reputation, Lucinda Curtis
arrives in West Point, New York, determined to land a husband from the
military academy. Campbell Conklin is first in his class and preparing
to embark upon a storied career in the U.S. Army. Lucinda thinks
Campbell will make the perfect husband . . . as long as he does not find
out about her father.
Seth Westcott also has taken a liking to Lucinda. He's kind, smart . . . and working extremely hard to graduate last. Tradition states that the worst cadets are assigned to the cavalry out west. And west is where Seth must head to track the swindler who stole all of Seth's mother's money. Seth is smart enough to vie for the top spot, but life isn't fair and this is his chance to catch the man who ruined his family. It's too bad Campbell is all shine and no substance, but Lucinda will surely see through all of that, won't she?

My Thoughts
Oh how I wanted to like this book! I thought it would be interesting to read about West Point and the history. I just could not get into this book at all. I have read a few of Siri's books before and I'll read one and love it and then I'll read the next and I just don't. I liked the idea of this book but the characters didn't pull through with me and neither did the story line. I think it had some interesting facts about West Point and otherwise this is not the book for me.
Three Stars.
