At Your Request ( Apart from The Crowd )A Novella
Jen Turano
At Your Request is the prequel to Turano’s new series Apart From The Crowd. I really loved the novella and looking forward to reading the first book Behind The Scenes which releases in April 2017.The author captured my heart right at the start and did not let go till the end. I loved the novella and the characters, they were well written and easy to follow. Turano writes quirky and lovable characters, which will keep you laughing through the story.This is Wilhelmina and Edgar’s story. Wilhelmina is one of society wallflowers. Her father having lost all his fortune ,she must take on a job of social secretary. Edgar was a childhood friend, who has been gone for a while. He is also a different person . What will he think of Wilhelmina after he finds out that her father has lost everything?

I have adored Jen Turano's writing since her first release back in 2012 and she remains firmly on my must-read list. I would have snatched up At Your Request even if it hadn't been a free prequel novella, but what a deal! Turano once again charms with endearing characters whose keen and often witty verbal exchanges made me laugh out loud. New York City's Gilded Age provides the perfect setting for this delightful tale as Wilhelmina and Edgar cross paths once again and Turano introduces other young ladies who have been deemed to be beyond prime marriageable age and are therefore set Apart From the Crowd. I'm already eager for Behind the Scenes, releasing in April, after reading the excerpt provided with this novella. Don't miss this fun story!

What a fun read. The story revolves around wallflowers at high society functions and just makes you laugh as you get to know their stories. When I say laugh, I'm not meaning in an unkind way but in a humorous way. I can't wait for the sequel book to come out in April 2017. I must admit I preordered it. The characters in the book were so much fun and at times you laughed out loud at the antics involved in the storyline. I can't wait for the sequel. There are three chapters of the sequel at the end of the novella that just make me more interested in reading what happens next.
