A horse race in trousers on Rotten Row. Visiting a gaming hall in a dress that would make her mother faint. Sneaking an invitation to a masquerade ball attended by only the wickedest, most debauched members of society... None of these things are scaring off bookish but strong-willed Amelia Bishop’s stuffy, egotistical fiancé.
