Marion Chesney's beloved Daughters of Mannerling series showcases the proud and lovely daughters of Sir William and Lady Beverley - six exceedingly beautiful and privileged young ladies.
Isabella's first season in London is a disaster, with not a single offer of marriage. All possible suitors find her dull, while she believes none of the contenders for her affections are worth catching. Making matters worse, her father gambles away the family fortune and their opulent estate at Mannerling to the roguish Mr Judd.
Scheming to recover Mannerling, Isabella plays for Mr. Judd's affections. But complications arise when romance kindles between the haughty Isabella and the dashing Irish Viscount Fitzpatrick - who sees the inner beauty Isabella tries so hard to disguise.
Chesney's enchanting tale is pure joy from beginning to end. Narrator Jill Tanner provides a dignified voice for the proud Isabella as she grapples with difficult choices that will change her family forever.
