Description

Miss Adelia Hadlee’s story continues in author Hannah G. Attridge’s latest novel, Adelia’s Sojourn! Miss Adelia Hadlee has made good use of her winter sequester in the bustling city of London, fully immersing herself in her new role as co-owner of a prosperous shipping company. Her pride and determination to succeed in the business world assists in her effort to not become distracted by Mr. Henry Ansley’s increasingly insistent attentions. Meanwhile, Adelia’s relationship with her business partner, the mysterious Mr. Edwin Castelow, has easily blossomed into a strong friendship. Edwin extends to her an invitation to travel to the dazzling destination of India, to further expand their business prospects, as well as introduce her to the beauty and legacy of his homeland. Adelia’s adventurous spirit readily accepts, and she is thrilled to be embarking on her first intercontinental voyage. The sparkling summer nights of India sweep her away into the romance of exploring a foreign country, as Edwin indicates his growing affection for her. However, Adelia’s summer sojourn threatens to become unraveled by rival suitors, miscommunications about business endeavors, and a stunning, yet pernicious young woman from Edwin’s past. While in India, Adelia will need to rely on her courage and compassion as she uncovers missing details from her father’s past, confronts the misogynistic views of the Victorian business world, and allows her heart to make its firm declaration for her future happiness.
