Book Beginnings and The Friday 56

I'm linking up with Rose City Reader for Book Beginnings and Freda's Voice for Page 56. Check out the links above for the rules and for the posts of the participants each week. Pick the closest book on your book stack and join the fun.

The Beginning:

"Wilhemina sat in Sir Daniel Braeburn's carriage, an object of study for the two men seated across from her."

Page 56:

"Pease soup."

Willa sent a silent prayer to heaven, begging that the rest of the dinner wouldn't be so meager."

From Mistaken Kiss, Book 2 in My Notorious Aunt series by Kathleen Baldwin. I think I downloaded this when it was free on Amazon. I wanted something light and fun to read and this really fits the bill. Willa is a great character and her journey is a lot of fun. This is book 2 in a series but easily stands alone.
