Review Quotes Praise for Alex & Eliza: A Love Story A New York Times Bestseller!Ī Seventeen Magazine Best YA Book of 2017 In the pages of Alex and Eliza, #1 New York Times bestselling author Melissa de la Cruz brings to life the romance of young Alexander Hamilton and Elizabeth Schuyler. And when Alex and Eliza meet that fateful night, so begins an epic love story that would forever change the course of American history. Though Alex has arrived as the bearer of bad news for the Schuylers, he can't believe his luck-as an orphan, and a bastard one at that-to be in such esteemed company.

Still, Eliza can barely contain her excitement when she hears of the arrival of one Alexander Hamilton, a mysterious, rakish young colonel and General George Washington's right-hand man. Descended from two of the oldest and most distinguished bloodlines in New York, the Schuylers are proud to be one of their fledgling country's founding families, and even prouder still of their three daughters-Angelica, with her razor-sharp wit Peggy, with her dazzling looks and Eliza, whose beauty and charm rival those of both her sisters, though she'd rather be aiding the colonists' cause than dressing up for some silly ball. As battle cries of the American Revolution echo in the distance, servants flutter about preparing for one of New York society's biggest events: the Schuylers' grand ball.
