Opis

It isn t easy for a woman to cut loose in 1890s Berlin. But the winds of change are blowing, and nothing can stop Josephine from pursuing her dreams.

After the tragic death of her little brother, Josephine travels to the Black Forest to heal. There she discovers a feeling of freedom astride a brand-new invention called the velocipede. The very idea of a woman on a bicycle is beyond taboo it is indecent and even illegal but Josephine will not be deterred. She simply needs to find a way to ride without provoking a scandal. Back home, Josephine has the brilliant idea of riding under cover of night, while the world is still asleep. But Berlin s streets are dangerous, especially on a bicycle.

Can Josephine s fighting heart help her overcome the obstacles in her path? Will the passion she feels for this new adventure lead her toward true love?"
