book

Soames’ daughter Fleur, married to Michael Mont, in line for a Barony; the story focuses on Michael’s start in Parliament and Fleur’s inherent dissatisfaction with her marriage, not unlike her father’s own experience only in this case it is Fleur who loves another.

The American Frances Wilmont enters the scene bringing news that Fleur’s real love, Jon, forbidden to her as the son of her father’s ex–wife, has married Wilmont’s sister. Fleur struggles to be happy and fulfilled, just as her father Soames did.
