Final Flirtation

Miss Rosa Fanthorpe knew that she was a catch. Not as a simpering, more-ringletted-hair-than-brains debutante, but more in the way that a thirty thousand pound fortune and being the only daughter of a wealthy business man can bring. However Rosa is determined to marry a husband of her choice. And once she has married that man, he can do whatever he likes so long as he doesn’t poke his nose into her business.

But deciding on Lord Freddie Lassiter doesn’t go according to plan, almost from the start. For whilst he promises not to interfere in her activities, he seems uncannily popular with the ladies, and some of his actions are most peculiar.

It’s almost enough to make her think he’s started on the laudanum again.
