Mannerling, the splendid family estate gambled away by Sir Beverley, remains the passionate desire of his daughters. Beverley himself has died; the eldest daughter, Isabellaâ??having failed in her bid to reclaim their homeâ??is blissfully wed. The mantle of savior then falls to the next eldest daughter, Jessica. How fortunate that the new owner of Mannerling has a marriageable son.

She is barely aware of the attentions of handsome, charming Professor Robert Sommerville, whose affection for Jessica is equaled only by the fear that her obsession to secure Mannerling will lead to disaster for all concerned. As scandal and intrigue swirl around her, Jessica must discover where the heart finds true happiness… (plus d'informations)

This series is the kind of period (regency) that I like. However, the second book in this series was almost exactly the same story as the first book in the series. I gave it two stars because of a couple of interesting touches the author gave the plot. Another thing I like about her books is that she keeps it really clean, there are few sex scenes to speak of. If I decide to read the next book in the series, I have to let a period of time elapse before I read it. Maybe then it wont bother me as much that the plot is the same as the previous books. I probably would recommend a Georgette Heyer book over this one. ( )
