Description

Alice Fraser is an innocent young girl from the quiet Scottish countryside whose life is about to take an unimaginable turn. Soon after her eighteenth birthday, against her better judgement, she finds herself catapulted into life in London during the Roaring 20s. Through her cousin’s connections, she encounters the hedonistic lifestyle of the Bright Young People. Before long, she is introduced to the intoxicating combination of jazz, alcohol, drugs and casual sex. Accidentally gate-crashing an orgy awakens a curiosity within her, and she decides to learn more about sex. Her chosen tutor is the devilishly handsome womaniser Charlie, Lord Moorfoot. The many warnings about his reputation for being incapable of emotion do nothing to put her off. While reluctant at first, he agrees to her request, and they set off together on a sexual world of discovery. Despite numerous warnings, she finds herself falling for him, and he is shocked to discover he feels the same way. Despite their feelings for each other, untold family histories and prejudice on both sides mean they must fight to be together. Can Alice find the resolve and courage to win the fight to be with the man she loves?
