Field of Honour

With six brothers, Lady Georgina Haworth believes she knows how the male mind works, but her confidence in that knowledge is shaken when she encounters the Marquess of Sterne, who handles the highly unconventional circumstances of their meeting with unexpected humor and charm. For his part, the marquess is immediately taken by the lady's refreshing candour and her unconscious sensuality. When he witnesses her devotion to family and the passion she brings to playing the pianoforte, he desires nothing more than to awaken her to another kind of passion. But another set of circumstances casts him into a quandary: how can he pursue the lady while she is pursuing her entr e into London's musical circles - under his sponsorship? The captivating Carlisle Chronicles evoke England's Regency period with engaging and sharply-drawn characters, vivid romance, witty dialogue, and cameos by real historical figures.
