Maggie Almond and the Masked Woman
BücherAngebote / Angebote:
A tantalizing Victorian romance that poses the question: are appearances always deceiving?
When Maggie moves with William to County Durham, she hopes to leave behind the devastating events of last summer in London.
But despite the challenges, hardship, and bitter prejudice she faced in London, Maggie yearns for the vibrancy of the capital and the sense she is making a difference. Overriding that is a more powerful undercurrent of unease in her relationship. William longs to marry and start a family. Maggie is terrified of losing herself and her independence.
Her restlessness evaporates with the arrival of three unexpected faces in the small mining community - Maggie's literary hero, her former nemesis, and the new owner of the beleaguered Stanley Pit, Matthew Drummond.
All bring an expectation of renewal and change. But Maggie soon finds herself locked in a devastating battle to safeguard the future of her new home and her principles, learning there are few people who don't wear a mask.
Steamy, swoonworthy and shamelessly feminist, Maggie Almond and the Masked Woman is perfect for fans of Bridgerton.
