Two attractive, intelligent people with one thing in common - both
of them have sworn never to marry, unless it is for true love.
Beautiful and headstrong, Lady Elva Chartham shocks her family when
she denounces the debutante balls and festivities of London as a
waste of her time. Determined not to bow to the pressure of polite
society into an early marriage, she returns home to the pleasures
of the country and to dream of travel and adventure. Little does
she know that opportunities for both will be presented to her
during a surprise visit from her cousin, the enigmatic Duke of
Sparkbrook. Handsome and equally adamant that he will not marry the
eligible young ladies paraded before him, they enter into a pact to
help the British Government. Leaving the safety of England for
Russia and the opulent court of Empress Catherine, Elva and the
Duke grow closer as they face great danger amongst the plotters and
espionage they discover. Will they succeed in their mission and
return safely back to Britain? Or will their deception be
discovered as they get drawn ever deeper into a court filled with
desire, betrayal, revenge, and ultimately love? If you like Downton
Abbey you will love Barbara Cartland .
