Daughter of the Dreadfuls

by Barbara Sherrod

Miss Emma Drenville was both unskilled in social graces and accident prone. She came from a family famed for their eccentricity and indifference to the latest fashion. But Nicholas Blake, bored with the bland belles, is taken with the unique Emma. Goodreads review by lemontreelime: “Oh this one is a honey! Sherrod creates a loving but extremely quirky family and uses it as a foil to the unloving popular reality in regency London society. A well played and just nice read!”
