A RATIONAL ATTACHMENT
The daughter of a wealthy business man in York, Anne Emmons knows her father wants her to marry advantageously. Anne, however, has always dreamed of marrying for love. Set in the Regency period, Anne’s introduction to London Society is made difficult by her family's lack of aristocratic status, as well as her own secret ambitions. In time, Anne finds her way, aided by family and close friends, and the surprising support of one of the Ton’s leading figures. Will she succeed in finding the love she desires, or will she settle for a marriage transaction?
