Marriage Alliance
By Mira Stables
What was so improper about being a dancer? Seventeen-year-old Fleur could not understand it. Her marriage had been an arranged affair but she and Marcus might well have come to terms had not Napoleon’s escape from Elba called him away. When he returned to find his wife pursuing a successful career in the ballet, Marcus was furious. He resorted to stern measures to discipline his erring wife, and in doing so discovered that he infinitely preferred the impulsive, loving child to an insipid paragon of propriety.
Mira Stables is the author of many historical fiction novels, including The Byram Succession, The Swynden Necklace and Golden Barrier.
