It was bad enough that Miss Cicely Haringay had to sell the manor. It was even worse that she had to sell it to a city gentleman! Cicely was determined to dislike the new owner, but when circumstances forced her to take a job as his secretary her feelings began to change. Alex Evington was handsome, charming and...a mystery. Why had he really bought Oakleigh Manor? What were his motives for hosting a sparkling house party there? And why did Cicely feel drawn to him, when his feelings for her were so impossible to understand? This is a glittering romance set in one of England's most glamorous eras, the dazzling belle epoque.
