"An Affair of Interest" 1991
"The Luck of the Devil" 1991
By Barbara Metzger. this book contains two separate romances. Published in 1998
This was a re-read for me. I love the way Barbara Metzger weaves her stories into great romances.
The First story "An Affair of Interest" is about a young girl, Sydney Lattimore. She planned and worked it out to give her sister, Winifred, a season. When she was running out of money, she decided to go to a money lender. The beginning of great fun!
The second story "The Luck of the Devil" is about Rowanne Wimberly, a conservative young woman who manages her brother's house. At her first visit to Almach's, she sits by the sidelines until three handsome rakes enter. The one in the uniform, Harmon Carrisbrooke Delverson, called Carey for short , was introduced to her and this really begins this story. Lieutenant Delverson went off to war with Rowanne's mother's broach for good luck. Carey didn't forget her. Rowanne didn't forget her soldier rake. (FYI no sex.)
Twp great stories in one book. A very fun and pleasurable read. Happy Reading! Reading Genie
