Thanks to Netgalley and Kensington Books for acces to this title. All opinions expressed are my own.

A young woman rises from a life of desitution in Virginia to one day become one of the richest women on 5th Avenue. But who was Arabella (Belle) Huntington?
Loyal daughter? Prostitute? Bigamist?Mistress? Wife? Widow? This historical novel sets out to answers these questions and covers the time period between 1867 to the early 1900s.

I liked this novel but not as much as The Second Mrs Astor. Perhaps because this one wasn't quite as gossipy and soapy. I didn't quite feel connected to any of the characters though and for that I feel it waffles half way between a 3 and 4 star.
