the back cover blurb “ She might be on the shelf but she wasn’t desperate “
29 year-old spinster Theodora Thornfield has accepted employment as a paid companion to her cousin, Lady Bracken. But she has her older sisters who has married well to fall back on. I liked that she was no carpet or a pushover and she seems to be quite aware of herself (and honest with herself too) There are some very funny moments and sentences, too.
