Gloucestershire, 1813. Miss Mary Lound of Tapley End would be the first to say that she demonstrates more grace with a fishing rod in her hand than she might ever twirling in a ballroom. This was not, however, a problem until her ne'er-do-well brother sold the family estate, leaving Mary and her mother in very straitened circumstances. When the new owner, Sir Row land Kempsey, takes up residence, Mary decides to direct her energies into recovering her beloved home by catching a husband.
Promisingly, Sir Rowland thinks Miss Lound is a breath of fresh air. But with awkward attempts at flirtation, a duplicitous predator at large in the neighbourhood and the emergence of feelings that complicate her pragmatic goal, Mary discovers that landing the man she w ants is more difficult than she had anticipated.
Sophia Holloway read Modern History at Oxford and also w rites the Bradecoteand Catchpoll medieval mysteries as Sarah Haw kswood.
