"Lord Rivington's Lady" by Eileen Jackson Published 1977 Georgina Havard and her maid were taking a shortcut across a neighbor's property. She had been out taking medicinal mixtures and victuals to villagers who were in need. They came upon a dog who bounded to her and lay across her feet. The dog was well cared for and not a local farm dog. A moment later the owner appeared. A six foot corinthian in dark country garb stood in their way. Georgina was petting the dog when the owner called out, "Remove your hand from my dog." Because of her dress he assumed they were maids or kitchen wenches from Kennerley where he was staying. Georgina told him they did not reside at Kennerley and that she had permission to cross anytime she wished. He accused them of trespassing. He still treated her like a servant and things came to pass until he kissed her. The next day Georgina, her mother and sister were invited to dinner at Kennerley. Here she met the man who had kissed her, The Earl of Rivington. After dinner a lively discussion broke out among the guests. Georgina was an independent young lady and upon listening to these ridiculous beliefs of the silly girls in the room, she finally could stand it no more "Flummery" She said springing to her feet. Lord Rivington leaning nonchalantly against the wall told her that he could not see the merit of the book she commented on and amazed it would fill any young woman with rebellious spirit as seemed to possess Miss Havard. He went on and on totally embarrassing her. She of course couldn't let him get away with being rude to her. Things went from bad to worse and continued in this manner even when Georgina went to London for the season. Georgina hated him but found with every kiss she was falling in love with him but how can she love a man who mocks her and mistreats her brother, who he got into a fist fight with. I've only just began to touch on all the happenings in the book. This is one you will enjoy. You my readers must find out for yourself how all is resolved. Happy Reading!
