Ian O’Connor spends his days in the purgatory of a New York textile factory, enduring the dangerous conditions to keep his family afloat. Somewhere in the vast, dark corridors of his daily prison is an angel. He has seen her only once but is determined to find her again.
Biddy Dillon has lost her home and her family. Loneliness chips away at her fragile hopes until she meets Ian, whose soft-spoken kindness touches her heart. For the first time in years, she begins to believe in the possibility of good things to come.
When tragedy conspires to pull the couple apart, they must decide if theirs is a future meant to be built together, or if fate has other plans.

Ian and Biddy’s story is beautiful! The concern and care that Ian shows towards Biddy touches your heart. I am not someone who cries while reading books, but I Sarah Eden has a way of writing that makes you feel what the characters are feeling. I absolutely loved this book!
I think I liked the prequel better than the first two of the full length books in the series I’ve read so far. It was sweet and not drawn out since it is a novella yet I still felt like I knew the characters well enough and even though at least for Ian it was pretty much love at first site I didn’t feel like it was an insta-love romance. Plus I’m a little bit of a sucker for a hero that is shy and awkward.
I thought I had Biddy’s father’s situation figured out early on and I turned out to be so wrong! Nice to have a little surprise in there. My heart ached for Biddy and her loss of family. I felt relieved that she would have a family to love and love her.
