Historical Fiction-Romance

 

For the third Inspirational Regency Romance from Linore Rose Burkard, the author takes up the story five years after the events of The House on Grosvener Square. The first romance has achieved the desired result of matrimony and even produced two children, unusually doted upon by their parents, Ariana and Phillip Mornay. Mr. Mornay would become a viscount, if only he’d agree, but he has more vexing business to attend to: Ariana’s family visit with her scheming and somewhat spoiled naïve young sister Beatrice, as well as having to fill his estate’s Country curacy. And that is a nasty business when who should be proposed for the post but a former rival of Ariana?

  

Burkard’s favorite family of mischief returns for another adventure. Not content to cause madcap mayhem in London, they now find plenty of trouble in the country when a mysterious illness causes an upheaval in housing arrangements. A new neighbor has ulterior motives of several sorts to be in the district. To top it off, no one wants Beatrice to have her own season in London so that she can catch a rich husband like her sister.

 

Country House Courtship misses none of the high jinx of London society during the era of England’s Prince Regent in the early days of the nineteenth century, when fashion and society are an entertainment to themselves. Burkard fans will enjoy this story which will make many new devotees to period romance.
