Romantic sentiment, the arts, & a twist at the end

Great character development and exploration of emotion. Set against the backdrop of the gilded age of New York, Virginia Loftin finds herself in the heady cafe-artist society (a private salon) on prestigious fifth avenue where she is first exposed to the arts and critique as she tries her hand at her first novel. We're able to feel the deep cut of heartache and the subsequent strength and resolve as she emerges a stronger and fulfilled young lady. The book moves at a good pace for today's readers and is chock full of romantic sentiment, the arts, and a twist at the end. I've recommended this book to friends.
