About This Book
A spirited young woman from an old Irish family rides boldly in fashionable London society, displaying independence and horsemanship that attract attention. Engaged to a wealthy, well-connected man whose polished, genteel world contrasts with her reckless energy, she faces competing advances from a conceited foreign suitor and the gossip of society. The plot traces social maneuvering, romantic rivalry, and the heroine's resistance to being tamed, moving between public scenes of display and private tensions that test loyalties and expectations.
