Wellman Hathaway was president of the Hathaway National Bank. After the stock market crash of 1929, Wellman was in financial turmoil. He was laying off staff and scraping money together to pay his depositors on the halves. His vow was to find a way to pay them fully. In walks a strikingly beautiful woman claiming his office was hers and she was from the future. Through no fault of their own, later that day the couple end up married. Amber had thought of a way for Wellman to make lots of money and to fully pay his depositors. Hopefully her memory was accurate of the 1930's. Would it work?

I liked how the author blended the modern and the old. Amber was a modern woman who took no man's gruff and knew her way around the business world. Wellman was straight-laced, a typical slightly stuffy 1930's man. Even though Amber had different ideas about women in the work place, Wellman made little objection to her ideas. To me, this made him a more forward thinking man and a great person for Amber to hook up with. The author did a very good job on the finer details of the story, adding interesting tidbits. There was mention in the story of a time traveler before Amber made a appearance, it would of been nice to have them meet or to tell what happened to him. But I guess that's another story.
