This lovely story follows the lives of two cousins, Alice and Glencora, and explores the complexities of love, marriage, and societal expectations within the upper echelons of 19th-century English society. At the outset, both Alice and Lady Glencora Palliser, née M'Cluskie, find themselves in London society arranging suitable matches. However, fate has other plans. Lady Glencora finds herself bound by previous entanglements to Burgo Fitzgerald, leading to an unhappy marriage marked by her husband's indifference. On the other side, Alice grapples with her own feelings for George Vavasor amidst the complexities of unrequited love and self-sacrifice. Through their trials and triumphs, the author provides insights into the dynamics of marriage, love, and the constraints imposed by social norms, creating a nuanced and compelling narrative that delves into the complexities of human relationships.
