And she falls more and more under Robert's charm. But can the rich Cardew scion really have feelings for her? Full of romance, glamour and atmosphere: a love story to indulge in! "A delightfully rapturous love story for teenagers [...]. While one may be reminded now and then of Georgette Heyer, F. Scott Fitzgerald's 'The Great Gatsby' and Dodie Smith's 'The Summer Castle,' there is something entirely its own about this feel-good book" The Guardian "Lou is a wonderfully endearing narrator, at times very poignant, at others extremely amusing when it comes to being an outsider. Full of echoes of Scott Fitzgerald and Austen, this is an absolutely exquisite love story that sweeps you along" The Irish Times "A compelling, charming and nostalgic romance novel" Express.
