Prkosna nasljednica

Prkosna nasljednica

Courtney Milan

The author weaves a love story based on the events of the fight for the right to vote in 1867, in which only part of the male population of Britain received the right to vote.

Jane Fairfield can't do anything. She will always say the wrong thing in society and give away too much. The clothes are made to defy style and are not the latest fashion, although they are very expensive.

Unfortunately for her, not even a huge dowry can save her from ridicule and gossip. But that's exactly what she wants - to do everything, even at the cost of humiliation, in order not to get married, and thus save her sister.

Oliver Marshall, on the other hand, has to do everything according to the rules, because he is the duke's illegitimate son. He grew up in modest conditions, but he has big ambitions. Every wrong step will bring him back to the glib from which he saved himself and his goals will remain unattainable. Wrong women are the last thing he needs in his life, especially if he falls in love with them.

Despite everything, there is something about the brave and lovely Jane that he cannot resist, even if it is disastrous for both of them…
