CAROLINE WAS QUITE A BEAUTY... She was a young red-headed woman with all the impetuous gaiety that goes with red hair. And though her life as governess to her uncle's children seemed rather dreary,... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Sylvia Thorpe wrote this book in 1960. Described on the cover as a Georgian Romance, it appears to be set immediately before the Regency times. The heroine penniless Caroline Cresswell sets out to help her friend, dearest Jenny to elope rather than wed the odious Mr. Ravenshaw. The elopement doesn't go exactly to plan, Jenny and Roland get away but Caroline finds herself in a dangerous predicament that only the odious Mr. Ravenshaw can assist her. The action is set mostly in the country with only a few scenes set in London's high society.
