Synopsis
"One of the best romantic stories to appear on the bookshelves in many a day." 'A novel of great verve. All devotees of historical romance will enjoy this one.' - WESTERN DAILY PRESS. She was the illegitimate daughter of an English aristocrat and a young and gentle governess. She was lovely, intelligent, and had a quality that drew all men to her, ensnaring them fatally in her web of charm. Stubborn in her loyalties, passionate in her affections, her one flaw was her uncontrollable and tempestuous spirit - a spirit that precipitated her into a heady romance and carried her across the face of 18th Century Europe.

About the Author
Claire Lorrimer began writing at the age of ten,encouraged by her mother who was the author , Denise Robins.

She subsequently turned to historical fiction. These novels on an epic scale feature the lives of passionate and striking heroines set against a strongly drawn historical background, often highlighting the situation of women.
