A Heart Most Worthy by Siri Mitchell chronicles the stories of three young Italian immigrants: Julietta, who wishes more than anything to be American; Annamaria, who falls in love on the other side of the road; and Luciana, trying to flee her past. The three young women meet in Madame Fortier's dress shop, where they spend their days creating works of art for the wealthy upper class women who patronize Madame Fortier's shop. They look for love in unexpected places, finding it in ways they never imagined.
I know. Cheesy, right? It wasn't as bad as I expected, although the title lived up to the book's Christian-fictionyness.
This book wasn't great. It was ok, and it got me through a long Sunday afternoon. Besides that, it wasn't terribly exciting. I think it was a little predicable how everything ended up all perfect and all. Besides that, the book was enjoyable.
Favorite character: Annamarie, most definitely. I loved how she stepped out.
Note: I received this book free of charge from Bethany House Publishers. I was not required to write a positive review, only an honest one.
Gosh...good book. Too bad the ARC not applicable to international :(
