Barbara Cartland

Since her mother’s death, the beautiful but innocent Linetta Falaise has led a sheltered life under the wing of her kindly French Governess. 
So she is heartbroken to find that her beloved Mademoiselle is at death’s door and that she, Linetta, had unknowingly been living off her meagre savings for the last two years.
As she now has no money, there is no alternative but for Linetta to travel to Paris and ask Mademoiselle’s niece, Marie-Ernestine, to help her find suitable employment, perhaps teaching English to French children.
Almost as soon as she boards the cross-channel Steamer heading for Calais, her innocent eyes are opened to the wicked ways of the world when a strange man’s unwanted and frightening attentions drive her to seek the protection of a handsome and noble stranger, the Marquis of Darleston, who is travelling to Paris on a secret mission for the British Prime Minister.
After they part company, Linetta is introduced to the heady glamour of Paris Society by the glamorous Marie-Ernestine, who is really the celebrated and infamous Blanche d’Antigney.
Linetta is appalled by Les Grandes Cocottes, who sell love to the highest bidder, especially since she is expected to join them because she is so young and enchanting.
Afraid, alone and beset by lecherous ‘gentlemen’, Linetta remembers the handsome distinguished Marquis she met on the Steamer and prays fervently that he will come to her rescue yet again.

The Eternal

The Golden Illusion

Paris, 1802. The French Revolution is over, but Madame Guillotine still casts a long and bloody shadow over the last of the Aristocracy. In the bowels of the Château de Marigny, the beautiful young Comtesse Lynetta hides in terror – until her Knight in Shining Armour appears.

Smitten by her delicate loveliness, the dashingly decadent Darril, Earl of Charncliffe rolls her up in a rug like Cleopatra and whisks her away under the nose of Napoleon Bonaparte himself.

Posing as honeymooning newlyweds, they flee with a gang of bloodthirsty revolutionaries hard on their heels and, hardly daring to believe that she has not lost her head to the guillotine, a trembling Lynetta suddenly knows that she has lost her heart.

A Knight in Paris

Man about town and something of a “ladies’ man” the new Earl of Rockbrook has given little thought to a liaison at Windsor Castle in which one of the Queen’s Ladies-in-Waiting, Lady Louise appears in his bedroom – so he is appalled when he learns that Louise’s mother expects him to marry her. He motivation is clear – although penniless at the time, he has since suddenly inherited the title and estates after his uncle’s death in a train crash.
Fleeing Louise and London for the safety of the countryside he breaks his collarbone in a carriage accident and is knocked unconscious.
When he awakens he finds he is being nursed by a lovely country girl called Purilla. She is beautiful, demure and intelligent – in fact everything he ever wanted in a wife – so he persuades her to save him from Louise by marrying him. Purilla has already fallen deeply in love with the handsome Earl – but how can she turn a marriage of convenience into one of true love?
