Publisher Description
"[T]hese books are dang cute. So freaking cute. You just get happy by reading."
~ Book Girl of Mur-y-Castell
It's 1839, and Lord Eglinton's tournament in Scotland is the most anticipated event of the year: he and some of his noble friends will don medieval armor and joust like knights of old.
Does this mean a revival of true chivalry? Miss Florence Marsh thinks it might.
Or is the tournament mere tomfoolery and the greatest folly of the century? Mr. Robert Beaton thinks it is.
But when Flo and Robbie meet at Eglinton Park, they'll soon learn that a dash of romance can make the greatest differences look rather small and that true love might find you in the most unlikely place.
If only Robbie wasn't working for that scandalous new magazine Allan's Miscellany! If only Flo's father didn't detest the periodical press!
And if only they had remembered to bring an umbrella!

Immersion not measured by pages
There is an industry trend to offer only a lead into a story - just enough to purchase the rest.
This is the whole story — and any reference to number of pages drifts from your mind in the immersion of place and time and character.
Full and whole and wondrously real.
And no… you are not left wanting more - except of the author who just took you there….
