About this listen
It's 1922 in the Manhattan of gin, jazz and prosperity. Women wear makeup and hitched hemlines - and enjoy a new freedom to vote and work. Not so for Evelyn Lockhart, who is forbidden from pursuing her passion to become one of the first female doctors. Chasing her dream will mean turning her back on her family: her competitive sister, Viola; her conservative parents; and the childhood best friend she is expected to marry, Charlie.
In a desperate attempt to support herself through Columbia University's medical school, Evie auditions for the infamous late-night Ziegfeld Follies on Broadway. But if she gets the part, what will it mean for her fledgling relationship with Upper East Side banker Thomas Whitman - a man Evie thinks she could fall in love with, if only she lived a life less scandalous?

Something different to what I expected
I don't know quite what I was expecting, but this wasn't it, and I loved it! I wanted to listen (and did listen) to it again straight away to pick up on the finer points I missed the first time around. This is not something I would normally do.
I loved the main character, she was a strong female character, but not without the human insecurities we all feel, and not without empathy for those around her. I could see this being a very successful tv mini-series, or even complete series with a few extra plot lines. I don't think a movie could do it justice.
The narrating was difficult to get in to at first, but I think that had more to do with listening to a strong American accent, and once I was used to it I was transported in to the story, I wish I could give the performance 4.5 stars.

Thoroughly enjoyable
A story of a determined young woman ahead of her time forging the right for women to pierce the glass ceiling. A delightful love story.

Beautiful story
I would definitely recommend a story to others, was very informative about the time that the story takes place in. One of those great stories where you can’t work out what the ending is going to be. I really loved.

Great read!!
I was a bit hesitant at the beginning as the narrators voice threw me off quite a bit but after a little while she perfectly developed the characters! Love Natasha Lester, she has such a gift for storytelling
