Review:
Love Finds You in Mackinac Island Michigan is about a young woman named Elena Bissette. Her family is vacationing at Macinac Island, possibly for the last time, as her family’s fortune is nearly gone. Her mother feels it is up to her to marry well to save the family fortune and business, but Elena wants nothing to do with it. She doesn’t want to marry for wealth – she wants to marry for love. In
the meantime, Chester Darrington (whom Elena’s mother is hoping will
fall in love with Elena) is a handsome, wealthy, eligible bachelor who
is tired of woman falling over him for his money. He wants a woman who shares his interests and his love of inventions and new things. Chester and Elena meet by chance at an abandoned lighthouse, though neither of them reveal who they really are. The
each realize they have fallen in love with each other, but when they
meet again at a ball and realize the true identity of the other, their
trust is broken. How can they love someone that hasn’t been truthful.
This was such a wonderful story. I really enjoy this time period. I liked Elena’s character a lot, as she didn’t want to conform to society. I felt bad for her, struggling to marry well to please her mother, yet wanting to find true love. Chester’s character was fun, too. I just loved their “chance” meeting, and found myself having a hard time putting the book down because I was anxious to see how they finally realized who the other was, and if that would change anything. I highly recommend this book!
