To Steal a Heart

The Bleeker Street Inquiry Agency

By: Jen Turano

Narrated by: Andrea Emmes

After a childhood as a street thief, Gabriella Goodhue thought she'd put her past behind her until a fellow resident at her boardinghouse is unjustly accused of theft. In the middle of breaking into a safe that holds the proof to prove her friend's innocence, Gabriella is interrupted by Nicholas Quinn, the man she once considered her best friend - until he abandoned her.

After being taken under the wing of a professor who introduced him into society and named him as heir, Nicholas is living far removed from his childhood life of crime. As a favor to a friend, Nicholas agreed to help clear the name of an innocent woman, never imagining he'd be reunited with the girl he thought lost to him forever.

As Gabriella and Nicholas are thrown together into one intrigue after another, their childhood affection grows into more, but their newfound feelings are tested when truths about their past are revealed and danger follows their every step.

Critic reviews

"Readers will laugh out loud at the witty dialogue and cheer when justice gets smartly served. This is Turano’s best yet." (Booklist, starred review)

Completely Delightful!

Characters with unusual backgrounds fill this completely delightful story. I loved the reunion between Gabriella and Nicholas. ❤️ The cases and how the ladies of The Bleeker Street Inquiry Agency solved them were fun to read. I was particularly fond of Winston, Precious, and Pretty Girl. Everything Jen Turano writes is great! There is something extra special in how she writes animals into the lives of her characters too. This will be another audiobook that I will listen to repeatedly.
*Update* I have listened to this book at least 4 more times. I still LOVE it!

love it

way too short😊 I wanted it to keep going and going. cannot wait to read next one

Funny and clever

Lots of humor, very clever plot. Lots of character interaction. Jen Turano does a witty job of poking fun at the American ton of the late 1900s to turn of the twentieth.

Did not disappoint

This was my first experience with this author, and I love the book. I look forward to listening to more books from her.

Good book

Enjoyable. A charming book about women and their lives on the east coast back in the 1880s.
