Advice for young ladies on a happy marriage
9.99 €
England, early nineteenth century. Twenty-year-old Kitty Talbot, who has four younger sisters in her care, needs to find a huge sum of money in a short period of time to pay off her parents' debts to creditors. Otherwise, she could be left without a roof over her head. Even if the roof leaks and the rooms are poorly furnished, all means are good to keep the house where they spent their childhood! Kitty decides to take the desperate step of getting a marriage proposal from some wealthy gentleman of high society. After all, who doesn't play doesn't win, and risk is just part of the game. What Kitty does not expect is to meet a very shrewd gentleman, Lord Radcliffe, the elder brother of the delightfully wealthy Archibald de Lacy. The Lord, who has unmistakably guessed in Kitty a money-hunter, is determined to destroy her plans at any cost.... English traditions, English manners, English humor from the "modern Jane Austen"!
