The House Of Fortune by Jessie Burton
Set in 1705 Amsterdam, an 18-year-old woman from a once-prosperous merchant family longs for freedom as her aunt schemes to secure their future by arranging a wealthy match. Secretly in love with a poor theatre set painter, she is torn between passion and duty while the reappearance of a mysterious miniaturist—and long-buried family secrets—forces the household to confront grief, identity, and the price of survival. As pressures mount, she must decide what kind of life she is willing to claim and what must be left behind.
