Vicky lives in an idealistic world. But when her sister suddenly appears, revealing that she has barely escaped from her abusive husband. Her parents insist that Vicky get married as quickly as possible in order to protect the family estate from her wicked brother-in-law.
But who can Vicky trust? The handsome and charming Mr. Carmichael? Or her old best friend Tom Halworth? As Vicky traverses the eloquinte and frustrating world of balls and flirting and marriage proposals - along with the puzzling accidents that keep befalling her and her family - she can't help but wonder if she'll ever find her Jane Austen ending.

This book good, with lots of twists turns. The characters were believable, even if the story was a bit far-fetched. It was interesting learning about escaping an abusive relationship in that era, as Althea tries to escape her husband Dain.
I was not pleased with the language that peppered this book, however if that doesnt bother you, then it is a very interesting and engaging read!

Four stars!
