I’m a big fan of Siri Mitchell’s work. Moon Over Tokyo and Something Beyond the Sky are among my favorite contemporary Inspirational romances. This latest novel by her is sweet and fun, expertly capturing the zany humor of the slapstick movies so popular during the 1920s and 30s. While it was a delight in many…
