Sinopsis

In 'Four Girls at Chautauqua,' Pansy'Äîpen name for Evelyn Raymond'Äîcrafts a richly woven narrative that vividly captures the experiences of four young women at the renowned summer resort of Chautauqua, New York. Set against the backdrop of turn-of-the-century America, the novel employs a straightforward yet engaging literary style characterized by clear prose and relatable dialogue. Pansy combines elements of bildungsroman and social commentary, exploring themes of friendship, moral integrity, and the evolving role of women in society, all while showcasing the vibrant intellectual and cultural milieu of the Chautauqua movement, which aimed to promote education and moral uplift through lectures, performances, and discussions. Pansy was a prominent American author in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, known for her prolific writing and focus on youth and moral values. Her own experiences as an educator and her dedication to Christian values profoundly influenced her storytelling. 'Four Girls at Chautauqua' emerges from her desire to depict the formative experiences that shape young women, providing insights into the social mores of her time, which she sought to challenge and define through her characters. This book is an essential read for those interested in early American literature, especially in the context of women'Äôs roles in society. Pansy'Äôs subtle yet compelling narrative offers not only entertainment but also a reflective lens on the challenges and triumphs of young women navigating their identities in a swiftly changing world. Readers will find themselves inspired and engaged as they journey through the lives of these four girls.

    Whitney Garrett is preparing to enter culinary school in the spring, but first she has to sell enough homemade pies at the local Christmas markets to pay her tuition. When her oven breaks, Whitney asks Marie Sloan, proprietor of the Red Door Inn, if she can use the inn's kitchen to keep up with her orders. Marie agrees, with a catch: Whitney has to watch the three Sloan children and cook breakfasts for the Red Door in return. 
     
     
     
    The inn is busy with holiday guests—including Aretha Franklin Sloan's perpetually single nephew Daniel and Ruby, a businesswoman in town to purchase Aretha's antiques store. Intent on making a Christmas match for the two, Aretha enlists Whitney's help in her schemes. But the deeper Whitney gets, the more she realizes that Ruby is definitely not the right woman for Daniel—and the more she thinks that she just might be his perfect match. 
     
     
     
    Cuddle up for some warm holiday cheer as New York Times bestselling author Liz Johnson explores the unforeseen consequences of meddling with mistletoe when love is on the line.
