About this audiobook
A young woman navigates the treacherous waters of societal expectations, romance, and financial ruin in 18th-century England. As she steps into the adult world, her innocent heart is tested by deceitful suitors and rigid moral codes that threaten her happiness. Surrounded by a vividly drawn cast of eccentric relatives and demanding peers, she must learn to trust her own judgment. Will her virtue and spirit be enough to secure true love and independence, or will the crushing weight of propriety destroy her future?
