Читать книгу Tarnished Amongst the Ton - Louise Allen - Страница 4

When I finished writing FORBIDDEN JEWEL OF INDIA, which was set in India in 1788, I couldn’t help wondering what would happen in the future to my hero and heroine, Nick and Anusha Herriard. What better way, I reasoned, than to travel forward in time to the Regency and find out?

This story is the result of that time-travelling, and finds the Marquess and Marchioness of Eldonstone—as they now, reluctantly, find themselves—arriving in London with their son and daughter, Ashe and Sara.

Ashe, I discovered, is not enthusiastic about finding a suitable wife, and I was as surprised as he was by the young lady he encounters on the dockside. The Herriards may be unconventional, but are they—let alone Society—going to accept Phyllida Hurst, with her shady background and layers of secrets?

Ashe doesn’t know either, but he can’t help being attracted—even if it leads to adventures with naughty artworks, a wicked crow and a sinister crime lord. I hope you enjoy reading TARNISHED AMONGST THE TON as much as I did writing it.
