Following the death of her mother, Amelia Snow has made herself over into an unexceptional companion, rather than the diamond of the first water that she used to be.
The companion of the daughter of a cit, she helps to polish and support her charge and to keep her from harm, while underplaying her own skills and beauty so that she fades into the background.
When Lord Quentin Fortescue comes courting the Smithson's daughter, Amelia is forced to put her own feelings behind her for the benefit of the girl. Lord Quentin may have other ideas, however.
This was a nicely written regency romance that does justice to the period in which it was set. An enjoyable read.
