Venture West: A Buckingham-Brown Story

by Angela Lain

Miss Louisa Lake was starting her third Season in London. The first had been exciting, the second disappointing, and this one was tinged with desperation. She had long since realised she was not rich enough, well connected enough or pretty enough to make any impact. Faced with parental criticism and the fear of failure, she knew she needed a viable alternative to the aristocratic marriage her mother so desired. Then she met two gentlemen whose ambitions tempted her to take a different direction. Louisa was no coward, she decided to take control of her own destiny and if romance should be included in this venture, so be it.Mr Alexander Seabrook (nephew of Viscount de Havermuire) and Mr Eddie Prentice (step-son of The Earl of Edesbury), were cousins and best friends. Eddie was charming, charismatic and excitable, Alexander was quieter, more introspective and sensible. Neither had expectations of great fortunes in their future, both had taken on careers they didn't much like, and neither was seeking a bride. They agreed it was time for a change, and made plans; they would head off on a trip of a lifetime. While Miss Lake had taken an interest in their plans, they had never expected her to join them. Across the Atlantic, over the mountains; the trip of a lifetime became a challenge, and a journey to change their lives forever.
