After leading troops on the Continent, Lord Grayson is uneasy in his new role as a mannered gent. But adventure comes his way again when he is coerced into delivering a message to one Katherine Billings. On the way, Grayson is injured by a highwayman hired by his duplicitous nephew. Then, staggering into a barn to hide, he discovers a play in progress—with the lovely Kate actually playing a role! It seems that out of necessity and a twist of fate, Kate fell in with a troupe of actors and found a new life for herself. What’s a cynical marquis to do? Using his common name of Hal Hampton, Grayson joins the troupe, partly to protect himself from his nephew, but mostly to get to know Kate better. They both fall under the spell of the poor but talented players around them—and fall for each other in a far more dramatic way in this ”utterly charming and lovable” romance from one of the genre’s finest talents (All About Romance).

Miss Bunting (Virago Modern Classics #372)

by Angela Thirkell

Barsetshire in the war years. Miss Bunting, governess of choice to generations of Barsetshire aristocracy, has been coaxed out of retirement by Sir Robert and Lady Fielding to tutor their daughter Anne, delicate, sixteen years old, and totally lacking in confidence. When Anne makes friends with Heather Adams, the gauche daughter of a nouveau riche entrepreneur, her mother is appalled. Miss Bunting, however, shows an instinctive understanding of the younger generation - perhaps, having lost so many of her former pupils to the war, she is more sympathetic to their needs. She may be a part of the old social order, where everyone knows their place, but is wise enough to realise that the war has turned everything on its head and nothing will ever be the same again - even in rural Barsetshire.First published in 1945, Miss Bunting is a charming social comedy of village life during the Second World War.
