Ramble and Roar: A 1920s Novel

By Catie Cordero

"LIFE'S A GAMBLE, BABY. SOMETIMES, YOU HIT THE CARDS JUST RIGHT. SOMETIMES, YOU COME UP SHORT."

Eliza was set on not marrying and becoming an all-important jazz star. Until her father betrothed her to the most eligible bachelor in Pennsylvania. But Eliza doesn't want Mr. Eligible. She wants the spotlight. So, she boards a train with a one-way ticket to NYC and her father's secret stash of money. (Guess it wasn't so secret after all). With a head full of rose-colored dreams, she throws herself into a city that doesn't care about honor or a person's last name. Propelled by ambition and the need to prove herself, Eliza does what any girl in Perugia pumps would do-make friends with people who have connections. And Hell's Kitchen has plenty of friends. Friends who like to make deals in smoky rooms where only a password will get you inside. As Eliza grasps for success and wavers between the affection of two men, she finds that her city of bright promise might offer only dazzling lies.

BOTH HUMOROUS AND SUSPENSEFUL, THIS ROMANTIC ADVENTURE CAPTURES THE PLEASURE-SEEKING DECADE OF THE 1920'S IN ALL ITS GLORY AND GRIT.
