The Keys to Gramercy Park by Candice Sue PattersonMy rating: 💛💛💛💛💛
Wow, this story captivated me from the start to finish. I experienced so many emotions while reading this story: frustration, loss, heartbreak, smiles, hope, and peace.
When an author plays with my emotions like this, it really proofs their talent of providing a reader with a story which is intriguing, and character you get to know, some you love and some you really do not like. I had so much hope that one of the characters would turn their lives around...you would have to read the book to see if it happened or not.
The characters and stories in both timelines kept me engaged, usually I tend to gravitate to one period more than the others.
Twists and turns kept me on the edge of my seat.
This is one of my favourite books of this series - each book can be read as a standalone.
I also listened to the audiobook and if you enjoy audio version, this one should make your wish list.

About the book:
Secrets Sealed Within a Wall Come to Light in Lower Manhattan
Walk through Doors to the Past via a new series of historical stories of romance and adventure.
Investigative historical journalist Andrea Andrews is tired of waiting tables to make ends meet. If she could find and write the next breakout story, she could secure a promotion with Smithsonian Magazine as their writer-at-large. But not much happens in lower Manhattan out of the ordinary until she discovers post-Civil War counterfeit bills hidden in the wall of her historic district apartment.
Politics have always been Beau Davidson-Quincy’s passion, despite his family’s real estate empire. His clean image and single status make him a target in the media as he prepares to build his campaign for NYC governor. He has nothing to hide until a cute waitress unravels a mystery that could destroy his family’s reputation.
Two centuries earlier, wounded Civil War veteran Franklin Davidson lost everything—his house, his wife, his standing in society. In his darkest moment, he’s awarded a position with the newly formed Secret Service to combat the spread of counterfeit U.S. currency. His life and new home in Gramercy Park are the envy of his peers, but nothing is as it seems. Secrets are meant to be kept, and Franklin will take his to his grave.
