| Witty, moving, and brilliantly entertaining, "American Heiress" is the deliciously literate and compelling story of a rich American heiress who marries an English duke--and gets more than she bargains for. |
Annotation:
At the height of Belle Epoque idealism in the 1890s, a wealthy American socialite looking to add nobility to her family's fortune discovers exactly what she seeks in a strapping English Duke. Yet, after the wedding, Ivo of Wareham reveals himself to be a reserved partner, a churlish lover, and a manipulator of court intrigues. Cora Cash must contend with what happens without the fairy-tale ending in THE AMERICAN HEIRESS, but fortunately she soon finds new outlets for her ebullience and wit apart from her marriage.

Praise
"[The author] gives Cora distinct personality and allure. . . . [She] remains a vibrant character throughout Ms. Goodwin's archly entertaining story."
