Mira Stables set this book a little before the Regency period. It mentions using chairs to be conveyed to an evening engagement, and I like her description of the season drawing to a close and people realising just how much they have spent. The hero is a dour scot James Cameron who has made a fortune in India who unfortunately has a niece who persuades him that Russet Ingram the heroine is trying to lure her intended away from herself. James eventually acts and Russet finds herself his prisoner in an exotic household of Indian servants.
