About the book
Lord Dewar visits St. Alton's Abbey, his ancestral estates, infrequently, preferring the cultural atmosphere of London, for the handsome young landowner is a great devotee of the arts, music painting and especially the theatre. Holly McCormack had no beauty but combined a beautiful voice with a witty tongue and a sensible approach to life. She lived with her aunt and beautiful cousin Jane near the Abbey, Lord Dewar's home. He announced he would produce Romeo and Juliet, with Jane to star. Holly found herself immersed with costumes, nagging Dewar to accomplish things for the neighborhood, and falling in love.
