An Italian scandal
Cameron, Cecil2022
Book
London 1859. Carina Temple has put away the stifling black crepe demanded by the death of her father - but with it she has also cast aside society's expectations of what a single young lady should be and do. When Carina's uncle summons her to Belgrave Square to inform her that her reputation is ruined, thanks to a certain Lord Danby, he tells her that she must travel to Italy until the gossip recedes and a suitable match can be found for her. But Italy is a tempestuous place - her grandmother and cousins soon tell her of the fault lines between the states and the dangerous rebels fighting for freedom. Chief among these is Ben Mavrone - and when he and Carina meet, he distrusts her society pedigree, and she considers him a violent extremist.
