Semi-Attached Couple, The by EDEN, Emily

Young and beautiful Helen Eskdale and fabulously wealthy Lord Teviot seem to be the perfect match. But when they marry, they find that misunderstandings and jealousies continually drive them apart. The machinations and intrigues of a large supporting cast surround the central question of whether their marriage will survive. Emily Edens comedy of manners is reminiscient of Jane Austens witty and ironic novels. (Summary by Elizabeth Klett)
