Clean, Sweet, HEA, Historical Fiction
A shattered reputation. A vanished future. And the faintest hope of love.
Just as Miss Catherine McArthur's first Season in London had promised everything, a suitable match, a comfortable future, and a place in society, it all came crashing down. The disgrace of her cousin Henry has left her family shunned by the ton, and Catherine is forced to retreat to the quiet confines of their Oxfordshire estate, her dreams slipping away.
With Grandmother Shelton gone from Bath and society's doors firmly closed, Catherine wonders if she will ever again be welcome in the ballrooms where she once shone. Even those she once called friends have vanished, save for the loyal Countess of Farleigh, formerly Miss Amelia Sprinton, whose steadfast support offers Catherine a fragile lifeline.
What future remains for a young woman raised only to marry, now marked by scandal not of her own making? As Catherine faces the prospect of spinsterhood, a question haunts her: can true love be strong enough to outshine disgrace?
