    Olivia Oliver was born into wealth and privilege in Beverly, Massachusetts, but when her family loses their estate during the Great Depression, she is forced to move herself and her two orphaned siblings out of Oliver Manor and into a small apartment downtown. Her new home comes with a bevy of neighbors: motherly Miss Edda, moody Richard Barton and his daughter Sarah, grouchy Mr. Hecker, and the charming dance instructor Alan Carey. Olivia is soon swept up in the thrill of a professional dance career, working two jobs, raising her siblings, attempting to meet her aunt and uncle's societal expectations, and navigating a friendship with the handsome new owner of Oliver Manor. For fans of historical fiction and romance, and heavily influenced by the work of L.M. Montgomery and L.M. Alcott, "Miss Oliver At Home" is a moving story about what truly makes a place a home. This is a completed work, with new chapters released each week! ©Amanda Flynn 2011-2024

    "It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing." * * * The Great Depression was, by far, one of the worst tragedies in the history of the world. People drowned in debt. Banks were ruined. The stock market was broken and unreliable. But one of the only things that kept people going was this new style of music. It was rhythmic, infectious, and something that people had never quite heard of before. So they called it jazz.
