About this listen

 Rosalie Vanderpoel, the daughter of a wealthy American multimillionaire, marries an impoverished English baronet and relocates to England, effectively severing ties with her family. Years later, her younger sister Bettina—striking, intelligent, and fabulously wealthy—embarks on a journey to uncover the fate of her sister. Upon her arrival, she discovers that Rosalie is worn down and dispirited, trapped in a stifling marriage marked by her husbands cruelty. Determined to change the course of her sisters life, Bettina encounters Lord Mount Dunstan, a nobleman of noble birth but dwindling means. As they fall deeply in love, he wrestles with the fear that expressing his feelings might be perceived as a pursuit of her wealth. This story weaves a tale of romance and resilience, exploring the transformative power of American ambition and affluence on a fading English aristocracy.
