Words & Dreams April 18 , 2017
The Plot :
Dorothea Sinclair has left her small hometown in Maine and come to Boston to begin a career as a newspaper reporter . But so far her job on the Guardian has proved disappointing . More skivvy than reporter , she ’ s even been subjected to a humiliating proposition from the chief editor ’ s son . She needs a break but never expects it might come from a chance meeting with an Irish ruffian .
There ’ s a great deal of injustice in Boston , and O ’ Hare , embroiled in his fight for equality on behalf of Boston ’ s Irish , is well aware of it . When he rescues Dorothea ’ s hat on the waterfront , he ’ s surprised to learn she ’ s a reporter . And when she offers him the opportunity to state his case in the Guardian , what can he do but accept ? It ’ s the perfect chance to put his dreams into his own words — and the only sure way to see her again .
