   Book Review

From Library Journal
Prolific author Chesney, who writes under many pseudonyms (Ann Fairfax, Helen Crampton, et al.), has created another exciting tale of romantic pursuits. Marjorie Montorency-James has lived 18 sheltered years with her aunt near London in the late 19th century. The attractive young woman fantasizes about life outside the walls of Haddon Commons, imagining gallant lords, festive balls, and exciting adventures. By chance and deceit, her aging aunt is convinced to take Marjorie to London for the Season. Handsome Lord Philip Cavendish becomes the object of the young woman's romantic dreams; her innocence and the meddling of some new acquaintances then lead Marjorie into some very unusual circumstances. Though initially a little slow-moving, the story picks up to become an enjoyable adventure in which everyone gets what--or who--they deserve. Appropriate for most large romance/historical fiction collections.- Betsy Larson, Brennemann Lib., ChicagoCopyright 1993 Reed Business Information, Inc.
