Overview: Rowena Harcourt-Spence has a secret known only to her diary. She loves Laurence Radley, the brave and cultured eighth Earl of Conniston. Araminta Neave has neither aristocratic birth nor breeding. She does, however, have a father who is indecently rich from his trade with the East. That, combined with fiery curls and a temperament to match, makes her someone to reckon with.
Genre: Romance, Historical
Rowena (#1): Their shared pleasure in watching her half-sister Amabelle dance through her first London Season has deepened her love but his inexplicable offer for Amabelle shatters her dream. When her sister indignantly refuses him, their irate father orders Rowena to make her accept. Fearful the Earl might withdraw his offer he further orders Rowena to maintain the Earl’s interest at her aunt, Lady Tiverton’s summer ball. Burying her sorrow, Rowena determines to obey. She is horrified to find a fellow house guest, the exotic Araminta Neave, daughter of a wealthy East India merchant attracting his attention. Then news arrives that Amabelle has run away. The Earl’s fury alarms Rowena but worse awaits her at home. Endless questions arise. How will she survive another blow? Will Amabelle be found and relent or will the Earl transfer his affections to Araminta? Is there any hope for her own happiness?
Araminta (#2): Her father wants the very best for his girl. That, he thinks, would be marriage to a Lord. But their brief visit to the autocratic Lady Tiverton’s home showed him how unlikely that is. Araminta is too unconventional. Undaunted, he has a plan. Enter the gently born but impoverished spinster Wilhelmina Orksville, instructress, mentor and the bane of Araminta’s life. She schools her manners, replaces her dresses and makes her embroider handkerchiefs. Only Araminta’s love for her father stops her rebelling. Her only escape is riding her magnificent stallion in Rotten Row where she attracts much attention. Particularly from Lord Frederick Danver, the Duke of Ellonby’s younger son, and Lucius Renford, the louche Viscount Trelowen. Both want something from Araminta. Lord Frederick covets the horse for his mare; Trelowen, a wealthy but unloved wife. What lengths will they go to in pursuit of their goals, and will either win Araminta?
