1815: Cassandra Hazeldon is on the run.
Under duress to marry a repellent friend of her uncle, Cassandra has made her escape, but now she is very much alone. With luck and quick thinking, she finds a refuge in a grand mansion in Mayfair, and a protector in Lord Irlam, or Hal to his friends.
Posing as a friend of Hal’s sister, Cassandra is swept up into the social whirl of a Brighton summer. But the attraction between her and Hal is starting to scorch, and when jealousy is added to the mix, things are set to reach boiling point.
London and Brighton
The locations are vague but strong if that’s possible. It’s very clearly set in and around the manor houses in Mayfair, London and the wonderful art decor places of Brighton.
The two cities are used as two strong settings for huge, posh houses and reader, you are taken around the various manor houses as a guest Oh what wonders you will see. The dresses, the decor, the furniture might be marvellous but it’s the gossip that you will never forget.
Pick up your fan, flutter your eyelashes and runaway with this regency read!
