      “Release me from the contract and I will make certain Papa pays you every penny from the estate.”

      “No. Jilt me and you will be ruined, your father and sister with you.”

      “But why?” Lottie was puzzled.

      “Because I need an heir. One woman is as good as another in the dark. Your father owes me and you chose to deceive me. You will keep your part of the bargain whether you wish it or not.”

      Tears were stinging behind her eyes, but Lottie refused to let them fall.

      “Have it your own way, sir. You hold all the cards it seems but you may come to regret this…” She walked past him and this time he let her go.

      “In An Innocent Debutante in Hanover Square, Anne Herries shows us how life was not always easy for the less fortunate in Regency England… These and other social issues combine with danger…making it a great read from beginning to end.”
