The only daughter (and youngest child) of Lord and Lady Whittaker, twenty year old Gloriana reveled in her third season amongst high society London. With a marriage proposal all but verbally uttered, and very much anticipated by the ton, she had never been happier. But, sometimes, things are just too good to be true, and a vicious kick back to reality was in the cards for Miss Gloriana. Heart broken and bitter, she returns to her mother's side at their country estate, where her life takes a few rather unexpected turns. ~A regency era romance~ •Jane Austen/Charlotte Bronte inspired story• Edge= to excite, stimulate, or provoke If you're like me, you loved 'Pride and Prejudice', 'Sense and Sensibility', and 'Jane Eyre'. It's so easy to get lost in time while reading about life in the age where men were (mostly) gentleman, where lavish balls were frequent, and when there was a season in London where the gentry and well mannered people got together to gossip and form relationships. Also, if you're like me, all of those super inaccurate, pseudo regency period romance stories probably make you want to weep all over your Mr.Darcy body pillow. And that's not to say I don't read them, I still do, cause I'll take what I can get. I'm also not insinuating there aren't great, truly well written regency period stories on here either. I feel grateful to have found a few so far, and I really appreciate the authors who wrote them. But I couldn't help but try my hand at writing something I'd really enjoy reading. Something a bit more accurate than most. Still a little overdone, still has everything you want in a good regency era love story, but it shouldn't turn you into a Bertha Mason out of frustration. Any comments are appreciated! ♡JordynBH

That's quite a sigh. A man's voice, deep and observant, breaks through the silence. Immediately, I straighten up, as if being pulled by an invisible string. My eyes dart to the source of the voice, and there he stands. Tall and composed with a posture so impeccable that it makes me wonder if he has a military background. A pair of clear blue eyes gaze at me expectantly from behind a mask that molds perfectly to his face. His features are strong and angular, his jawline sharp. His attire is immaculate, every detail of his ensemble meticulously pressed and tailored to perfection. As he steps closer, the tiny golden coat of arms pinned to his chest catches the light, momentarily blinding me. Standing in front of me is the Duke. I lower my gaze. The less he sees of me, the better. All he needs to remember is the lady in the blue dress and my job here will be complete. -- In a world of glittering ballrooms and masked deception, a humble governess steps into the shoes of a rebellious noblewoman, risking everything to save her family. But when a dashing duke takes an unexpected interest in her, the line between duty and passion begins to blur. As secrets unravel and hearts collide, she must decide: will her charade cost her everything? A lush story of love, identity, and second chances, this story promises a happily ever after where true hearts triumph over society's expectations. ** Inspired by the glittering world of Bridgerton.
