"You say you cannot trust me, yet you want to befriend me."

Red roses symbolize passion, true love, romance and desire. The red rose is a classic "I Love You" rose. A deep red rose can mean that you are ready for commitment, and have a deep passion for that person. When red roses are used for a bridal bouquet, they represent bliss in the marriage as well as true respect and appreciation toward one another. Ultimately, if you want to tell someone you love them, a red rose is the way to go.

Elizabeth Brompton, as third child of her parents, has not had an easy life. She is twenty-three now, but does not feel the pressure to marry. In fact, she does not want to marry for her heart has been broken too many times: by her brother, by her father, and by him.
William Brown, lord of Hawthorne, must admit that his life has been a bore ever since he left her. For all those years, he has not been able to stop thinking of her, for his best friend - her brother - was a constant reminder of the woman he has lost.

Now her house at Lyne Avenue seems to be the place where everyone wants to be. Andrew Brompton is not liked by the ton, and when a rumour comes out, he does not bother about it.
