What’s a girl to do when she’s leading a life of deceit and fearing she will be exposed?
Nora Sharpe finds herself surrounded by luxury and refinement after climbing from her humble beginnings as a scullery maid to a lady’s maid. Now content with her life, Nora heads to Bath as a companion to the infamous and eccentric Lady Margaret, the Countess of Blakley.
Lady Margaret sees something special in Nora and intends to turn her into a debutante. The Cunning Countess plans on landing Nora a titled husband, and of course, will stop at nothing to get what she wants. Launching a former maid into High Society isn’t proper, but propriety never stops Margaret.
Nora feels grateful to Lady Margaret for such an extraordinary opportunity and gesture, yet spends her nights filled with worry and dread. She loves daydreaming of what the countess offers, yet understands it can never be. Should Nora unburden her secret past? Can she trust anyone? Or should she run while she still has the chance?
She’s torn between two dreamy men, yet promised to another… But with an eccentric countess calling the punches, who knows what will happen?
Are the affections of an eccentric countess, a handsome duke, and a swoon-worthy earl enough to make Nora face the demons of her past? Find out in this cheeky Victorian Novella. A parlor, not bedchamber romance.
