A witty, gossipy and glorious regency comedy of manners, this book follows Amelia, the eldest daughter of a wealthy family in the fictional county of Wickenshire in 1841. Amelia isn’t your average 19th century herione as she’s in a secret relationship with her friend, Clara.
Set against a backdrop of the society marriage season, Amelia tries to keep her secret safe while avoiding marriage prospects set up by her father. This one was so much fun to read and is perfect for fans of Bridgerton.
1841. Mr Montgomery Hurst of Radcliffe Park is getting married. To the great consternation of the county of Wickenshire, he is not marrying the daughter of an earl, but an impoverished widow with three children, whom nobody has ever heard of. Society is both appalled and intrigued.

Mr Hurst's marriage kicks off a series of events, as it becomes clear his business is everyone's but his own...
