My Heart Belongs in Niagara Falls, New York: Adele's Journey by Amanda Barratt

Book Description:  Outwardly, Adele Linley’s trip to visit her American cousins is nothing more than a summer vacation. In reality, she’s the daughter of an English aristocrat with barely a penny to her name seeking a rich American husband. 

Having grown up in an overcrowded orphanage, Drew Dawson is determined to make a name for himself. He’ll take any honest job to provide for his sister—even crossing Niagara Falls by tightrope.

On a sightseeing trip to the Falls, Adele meets several eligible suitors. Incredibly wealthy and pompous, Franklin Conway takes an immediate fancy to her. But Adele would truly like to marry for love.  When she encounters the mysterious Drew in the garden, Adele is confused by her feelings for someone who is everything she is NOT looking for. Will they both stay the course they have chosen for themselves?

My Thoughts:  I'm loving these My Heart Belongs reads.  Adele's Journey is a somewhat light read but, yet, there are may heart truths in the depths as one reads about Adele and Drew.

Adele is somewhat like a spy to me...she is utterly penniless but she comes to America to visit her cousins hoping to snatch a wealthy husband.  

It takes a lot of planning and escapades to try and snatch a wealthy husband.  Gotta give a lady credit for trying.  After all it wasn't easy for a lady to be single and independent if her daddy didn't have a dime but was suppose to be wealthy.

Now Dre Dawson is a character!  He plans to walk on a tightrope across Niagara Falls so he can earn money for he and his sister.  Drew remembers all to well the pain of growing up in an orphanage.  

This is a great story and a fun one too.
