Beautiful orphan Pauline Darrell despised high society as much as it despised her. Her uncle, Sir Oswald Darrell, hoped love and matrimony would change that, for the future of the magnificent Darell Court depended on it. He expected that good company and a strong suitor would turn her from a wild bohemian lady to a lady fit to run the legendary estate.
But how could a girl so headstrong and proud become a gentlewoman?
Love works wonders sometimes and it might just be enough to redeem Pauline.
For fans of Jane Austen, English romances and imprudent marriages this edition includes beautiful illustrations drawn exclusively for the book and the first chapter from Clay's most popular book, Dora Thorne.
