This novella is Book One of the Brown Eyed Beauties Novella Series.

The Brown Eyed Beauties Novella Series follows the love affairs of three friends: Marcus Farniente, Harry Cavendish and Philip Carteret. Although characters reappear throughout the series, each novella is a self-contained story and the series does not have to be read in chronological order. These sweet traditional romances set in Victorian England range from 19,000 to 24,000 words. They contain mild sexual references, antiquated oaths and some passionate kissing.
