Synopsis

Part of the author's Camfield Novels of Love, this Regency-era romance follows Sandra, a young woman who secretly flees her home to escape a life she experiences as a kind of living death. She secures a position as companion to the Dowager Countess of Kyle and finds herself swept into the glittering Beau Monde of Brighton.

There she meets the handsome Earl of Kyle, whose cynical, worldly manner she at first despises, only to gradually sense that there is far more to him than his reputation suggests.

Her growing hopes are dashed when she learns that the Earl is already married to a Frenchwoman, and her situation grows more perilous still when she uncovers a sinister plot to extort money from the man she has come to admire.

As romance, intrigue, and danger intertwine, Sandra must navigate a treacherous social world in her quest for love and security. A chaste, fast-moving historical romance in the author's signature style, blending innocence, high society, and a touch of melodrama.
