Clorinda the Winged Venus, star attraction at Prebble’s Flying Circus come to the end of her act with a delicate backward flip to land on the rump of her horse Percy with a flourish. She is saddened as this is her last performance with Percy and her friend and fellow equestrian Rose Bowman.

It was time, she had decided to discover who she was, as her past seemed to start as an abandoned child, rescued by Mrs Prebbles and bought up in the Circus life. She has memories of a different childhood, which are faint but very real.

Walking the freezing streets of London in the dark was, she realised, not the best idea. As she turns away from a building, she is caught by a gust of wind just as a speeding curricle comes around the corner. Thrown into the path of the horses, she hits her head on the cobbled road with a thud.

Raven Purfoy, The Earl of Hartford Castle, leaps from his vehicle to help the stricken person only to discover this stricken person coming to her senses but with no idea where she was going or where she had come from.

He takes her to his long-time friends Alick and Cory Wolfe’s home where she can be safely cared for until she does come to her senses. Raven lives next door and the Wolfe household is a place for a large, happy group of people who gather their daily.

So begins a Regency Romance, The Accidental Debutante, laced with drama that will once again entertain and beguile as Rav learns to face his demons, and Eliza is determined to discover her past.

Can they make a future together or will they let the tragedies of the past change what could be a promising future, is at risk until Rav realises what a fool he has been, Eliza is in danger and an appalling wager will make the difference as to what their future holds.

The Accidental Debutante sees old friends grace the pages but is a standalone Regency Romance from Jane Dunn created in true Regency style.
