Convinced the Lord wills for her to marry an elderly rector, Ariana is none-the-less excited when her family spirits her away to London. There her heathen aunt promises to introduce Ariana to society as a young debutante. But Ariana's Christian beliefs prevent her from hoping to actually find a suitable match. She certainly has no interest in the rich but churlish Mr. Mornay. His rudeness can hardly be overlooked even when he comes to her rescue not once, but twice.

In the vein of Jane Austen, Burkard weaves a delightful world, rich with detail. Her characters spring to life as they deal with their own struggles and prejudices. I look forward to reading upcoming sequel, The House in Grosvenor Square.
