Marchioness below Stairs

The Marchioness Below Stairs was given to me in exchange for an honest review. The story is about Isabel, a widow from a stifling arranged marriage, who wishes to remain single and maintain her independence.

If you love Regency romances this book has it all - gorgeous refined women, a sprinkling of rakes and cads, and handsome heroes. The author has introduced different threads of interest through commenting on the politics of the time (in particular the anti-slavery bill), and through delving with detail into mouthwatering below-the-stairs food preparation.
