About the book
Just as her parents are set to marry her off to an older local squire, Honoria’s scandalous aunt writes to see if she can sponsor her for a season in London. Excited about this welcome change in her fortunes, Honoria sets out on her journey with Pamela, the quiet vicar’s wife who had been secretly dispairing about her constrained lonely life. On the way though, because of bad weather they are forced to spend several days at the country estate of the Duke of Ware, a hardened rake. Ware later continues the acquaintance in London and starts to realize that his heart is in some danger from the innocent Honoria.
