Mo step was ever consciously planned: being chosen by Lady Langton as a suitable nursemaid; getting sacked; driting into Kitty Hammond's fashionable house of pleasure; meeting Jack Skelton; loving Jack far more than he had ever loved her: marrying Sir Charles Overton whose embraces she merely endured. But now all that had changed. Now there was Captain Hugo Stirling and he brought with him a love wonderful beyond all imagining. A love doomed to end too soon...

A historical novel that is worth the read. It really gives insight into womans lives during that period. Nice light reading I would recommend. Great for the holiday season when you want to pick up a book, leave it for awhile and know where you left off when you have time to pick it up again.
