Romance Historical
Tracy Rees's The Elopement is an elaborately
imagined historical romance, full of delight and temptation,
spanning the luxury and poverty of late Victorian England.
'A beautiful book. Powerful and captivating, the
story will transport you to another time and place, plunging
you headlong into the lives of its characters' - Hazel
Prior, author of Away with the Penguins
A
wealthy heiress . . .
1897. Rowena Blythe is wealthy,
entitled and beautiful. As her twenty-fourth birthday
approaches, she’s expected to marry – and to
marry well.
An unsuitable match . . .
Her
parents commission a portrait of Rowena to help cement her
reputation as a great society beauty. However, Bartek, the
artist’s young assistant, is unlike any man Rowena has
met before – wild, romantic and Bohemian. While
society at large awaits the announcement of Rowena’s
engagement, it is Bartek who captures Rowena’s heart
along with her likeness.
A scandal in society . .
.
Rowena knows her parents would never approve of
Bartek, who in their eyes is nothing but a penniless
foreigner. As her feelings grow, she has no-one to turn to.
Dare she risk everything for love?
