Description

Wonderfully witty and superbly stylish, INDISCRETION is a spirited tale of love and Miss Fortune, which brings the elegance and flamboyance of Regency England to life.

When Caroline Fortune's prodigal father loses all they possess, he arranges for his daughter to become the companion of the formidable (but extremely wealthy and childless) Mrs Catling. Although uncomfortable with the plan, Caroline resolves to make the most of this introduction to polite society, and her beauty and intelligence soon attract many admirers. But, much to her dismay, she is just as quick to realise that love and romance are not what some 'gentlemen' seek and finds herself unjustly implicated in their indiscretions.

Exasperated by her predicament, can Miss Fortune retain her reputation without losing her head And will she discover that there is at least one good man who is more than willing to take her side and, indeed, her fancy
