Lord Rutherford's Affair
Anything would be better than marrying Cousin George,' declares Miss Deborah Phipps, and thus rejects her only chance of a respectable but boring future.

High ideals may be fine in theory, but, as soon she discovers, alone and destitute, in Victoria London, in real life one also needs things like food and shelter!. And that why she agrees to marry Lord Rutherford - a man she knows nothing about, except that he seems burdened by some terrible secret.  Can she ever hope to understand such and enigmatic stranger?  And dare she hope that he will one day come to love her?
