Add to that the steamy sex scenes and you're in for a real treat! Anyone who has enjoyed Ms. The story has enough to keep you guessing with a couple of red herrings thrown in to boot. Someone may be out to hurt Clarissa because surely all these 'accidents' can't be all down to the fact that Clarissa has no spectacles? The characters are well written and well rounded and are simply wonderful. There is also a sub plot here that runs alongside the main story. Off they whirl and so begins a wonderfully sweet and yet passionate courtship. Not deterred in the slightest, Adrian heads on over and begins a conversation with the poor girl who's obviously miserable at not being asked to dance. His cousin tries to warn him away from the pretty Clarissa saying that she's too vain to not wear her glasses when the result is that of many accidents and clumsiness. But without her glasses she can't see anything or anybody, just a swirling mass of colour as they all enjoy their evening dancing away.Įnter Lord Adrian Mowbray who was scarred in battle and hasn't been to town for 10 years after a spell of fainting women, (at the sight of him). Set in 1818, Clarissa is 24 years old and is supposed to be enjoying her first season out, after a shameful scandal 10 years before. Her horrid step mother has taken them away from her because 'they make you look ugly'. It tells the story of poor Clarissa Crambray who is nearly blind without her specs. This is such a good read and very funny too. Turn down the central heating before you start this book!
