New York Times
–bestselling author Dorothy Eden brings World War I–era England
to vibrant life in this romantic saga in which destiny turns a lady’s
maid into a lady
It is spring of 1915. Spoiled twenty-one-year-old Clemency Jervis and her Fifth Avenue entourage board the Lusitania,
bound for England, where Clemency is to marry the dashing Lord Hugo
Hazzard of Loburn. A few miles off the Irish coast, the ship is
torpedoed by the Germans. One of the few survivors is Clemency’s maid,
Hetty Brown, a young woman who resembles her mistress. Surprised to be
taken for Clemency, Hetty carries out a daring deception that makes her a
nobleman’s wife and the mistress of a magnificent country estate,
despite doubts about her among some in her aristocratic new set.
Suspenseful, surprising, and heartwarming, The American Heiress is a tale of love, war, and the far-reaching, often-unexpected consequences of our actions.
