"In the London society of 1863, the Peat family was considered wealthy, but it hadn't yet 'arrived.'" It's a year or so in the lives of three women whose pushy nouveau riche mother - and a more reluctant father - are trying to find them places in Victorian aristocratic society.
This was a fine debut historical/romantic novel from this author, who unfortunately seems to have stopped writing. I thought it was was a very good story, and was sorry to see it end, which I think is the strongest recommendation any book can have.
