In this Edwardian romance by a New York Times–bestselling author, things get all too real for a naïve young lady with a penchant for playacting.
Miss Marjorie Montmorency-James is lovely, young, and very impressionable. All these characteristics contrive to help her fall in love with a certain Lord Philip’s picture when it appears in the newspaper. Until the day she sees Lord Philip’s photo, she has only fantasized about a mysterious lover whose shadowy features are never quite clear.
Now she has a real live nobleman to dream about. Little does she suspect that she will soon meet Lord Philip in the flesh. How can she imagine such a thing? After all, what can justify a daughter of the middle class rubbing shoulders with the nobility?
Then suddenly that great day is upon her; she is to meet Lord Philip. But nothing turns out the way Marjorie expects. Love—and danger—lay waiting for Marjorie in London…
