This is the first book I have read by this author and I was very pleasantly surprised.I had read a couple of her collaborations with Tracie Peterson but nothing that she had written alone.I was a little worried at first when the book proved to be in the first person, but that actually worked well for this story.The heroine had an annoying aberration whereby whenever anyone did or said anything for at least the first half of the book, she had an unexplained urge to giggle which she stifled each time with a cough or some such.I’m sure the author intended for it to be an endearing quirk but it was overdone.Other that that, the story was well crafted and was a real page turner.There was enough of a mystery to keep me wondering how everything would turn out and enough romance to keep me happy about the whole thing.The setting in a carousel factory was wonderful and it was very interesting to find out how the carousel animals were designed and crafted.I look forward to reading more of Ms. Miller’s work.
