Weston, England, August 1815
Tamsin Penrose adjusted the curl that rested against her temple,
wishing it was as springy as the one on the other side of her face.
Ah well, she did the best she could and did not bemoan the fact that she
didn’t have a maid. She didn’t really need one, and her illustrious friends,
including a duchess and the daughter of a duke, never made her feel that she
was any different from them.

Except she was, despite being cousin to a viscount. Her friends came
from prominent families and had bright futures with Seasons and
advantageous marriages, while Tamsin resided with her hermit father in
Cornwall and was lucky enough to spend every August in Weston, where
her grandmother lived and where she’d met her dear friends three years ago.
Still, the differences between them didn’t matter to Tamsin any more
than they did to her friends. They were simply a group of young ladies who
enjoyed each other’s company. In fact, today, they would all enjoy an
alfresco luncheon hosted by their friend, Lady Minerva, daughter of the
Duke of Henlow.

Tamsin adjusted the ribbon of her bonnet and plucked up her gloves
before going downstairs. Her friend Persephone, who was now the Duchess
of Wellesbourne after marrying last autumn, would be picking her up on the
way to the Grove, one of many estates owned by the Duke of Henlow. She
would also fetch Gwendolen Price, who hailed from Bristol, from the
Weston Hotel, where she was staying with her mother.

Tamsin’s grandmother was awaiting her in the staircase hall. Her blue
eyes swept over Tamsin as she smiled. “You look lovely, dear. That daffodil
yellow is such a brilliant color for you.”
“Thank you, Grandmama.” Tamsin drew her gloves on. “I take it
Somerton left some time ago?”

Tamsin’s cousin, the Viscount Somerton, was also visiting. His mother
and Tamsin’s had been sisters—and Grandmama was their mother—but
they hadn’t been close, particularly after Tamsin’s mother had wed her
father and moved to St. Austell. Consequently, Tamsin hadn’t grown up
knowing Somerton or his older sisters well at all. Indeed, until a few years
ago, when her and Somerton’s trips to Weston had begun to overlap, she’d
met him only a few times.

Generally regarded as a jovial gentleman with rakish tendencies,
Somerton was close friends with Minerva’s brother, the Earl of Shefford.
They, along with a few other gentlemen, also gathered in August, though
not for the entire month. Eventually, they grew bored with the sleepy
seaside village and moved on to wherever unwed rogues found
entertainment.

“He did,” Grandmama replied. Petite, with dark blue eyes and light gray
hair, she was a force of nature who didn’t look or act her seventy years. She
held up an envelope. “A letter from your father just arrived.”
Tamsin blinked. “How odd. He doesn’t ever write to me while I’m
here.”

“Well, you can read it when you get back.”
“Would you mind opening it?” Tamsin asked, since she’d already
donned her gloves. “I’m afraid my curiosity is getting the best of me.”
Grandmama opened the missive and handed the letter to Tamsin. She
scanned the short message, her heart beating faster with each line.
