Description
England 1814. Flick – more properly known as Lady Felicity Forster – was twelve when she decided she was going to marry her handsome neighbour, Darius Grantley. Now, embarking on her second season, she’s no nearer to achieving that ambition. Drastic action is called for if she’s to make Darius fall in love with her.
Darius adores the lovely, high-spirited sister of the Marquess of Denby, but he’s aware that Flick is far above him socially and he can’t afford to keep her in the style to which she’s accustomed. Winning the high-profile Cuthbert case being tried at the famous Old Bailey courthouse will earn him a promised appointment to King’s Counsel and just enough income to prove a home for his well-born lady.But the cards are stacked against Darius. Not only do the newspapers trumpet his clients’ guilt, but a powerful peer bribes the witnesses and threatens Flick unless Darius sabotages his own case…
