Description
Lady Jane Fremney's life was on the brink of despair when she found herself at the Poor Relation hotel. Her tyrannical father and a wealthy suitor had driven her into hiding, but it was here that she received unexpected help from the hotel's owners. Determined to improve her circumstances, they brought her out for the Season, introducing her to a young man named Comte de Mornay. The handsome Comte was an exile from France, with a reputation for breaking hearts and evading marriage. Jane saw him as unsuitable, but when his life was threatened by an assassin's pistol, she found herself drawn into his world of danger and intrigue. As they navigated the treacherous landscape of 19th-century society, Jane and the Comte must rely on each other to survive. In this romantic adventure, M.C. Beaton weaves a tale of love, loyalty, and survival, set against the vibrant backdrop of London's high society.
