An Angel Runs Away

England, 1818

The victim of a tyrannical uncle and cousin, enchanting Ula Forde flees their grip, only to be rescued by the very man her beautiful but heartless cousin has betrayed. The Marquis of Raventhorpe pledges to avenge the cruelty to which both he and Ula have been subjected and she yearns to win the Marquis's love. But can her lovely spirit possibly touch the man who sees her only as an instrument for revenge?

"You will come with me, Ula"

Her Uncle walked towards his study and she knew he was going to beat her with the long thin riding-whip....

When an aggrieved Marquis of Raventhorpe helped the runaway Ula into his carriage she looked more like a tear-stained angel than the niece of the Earl of Chessington-Crewe and an instrument of revenge.

Falling in with the Marquis' plans to teach her despicable relatives a lesson she was an instant success with everyone from Prince Regent to Dowager Aunts. For Ula a dream had become a reality until the Earl with sadistic cruelty turned the tables.

Dragged from a Heaven of happiness to an attic in Hell, Ula sent her thoughts winging to the Marquis. Would he ever know she loved him? Could he come to her rescue yet again....
