When the Balkan Prince Stanislaus demanded an English bride, Queen
Victoria decided to send him Lady Lavina, whose family had a slight
connection with royalty. Determined to avoid this fate, Lavina
threw herself on the mercy of the Marquis of Elswick, a
disagreeable man who had turned his back on the world following
betrayal by the woman he had loved. Surprisingly, he agreed to help
by pretending to be engaged to Lavina, and, with her father, they
left to visit her relatives in Scotland. In the highlands Lavina
began to find herself attracted to the Marquis. Beneath his harsh
manners he had a heart - a heart that perhaps she could win. But
nearby was the Queen's country home, Balmoral, and when Her Majesty
arrived with Prince Stanislaus, they knew that there was still a
battle to be fought. Now Lavina learned the shattering secret that
was the real reason the Marquis had agreed to help her. And that
secret was to threaten to take from her the man she loved. How she
discovered the truth in a way that nearly cost him his life, is
told in this romantic novel. If you enjoy Downton Abbey you will
love Barbara Cartland.
