Booklist Review: "Her mother's death results in a deep bond between Theodosia and her remaining parent, the notorious Aaron Burr. Highly educated and acknowledged as a prodigy, Theodosia plays hostess and furthers her father's boundless political ambitions, keeping up appearances while their finances crumble. The musical Hamilton inspired Goldstein to create a novel about Theodosia in similar vein, lightly based on historical people and with an emphasis on entertainment. Teenage Theodosia considers various romantic options (the author Washington Irving, the painter John Vanderlyn), but fate brings forth the worst possible candidate, handsome rake Philip, son of her father's greatest enemy, Alexander Hamilton. The clever teenagers delight in sparring, while the divisive political situation of the 1800 election offers a backdrop for romantic tension. Goldstein provides a common ground for this fictional star-crossed attraction. Both are children of notable fathers who exerted considerable control over their children's lives in an attempt to mold them into greatness. The result is a Romeo and Juliet romantic tragedy played out against America's foundational years"
