Synopsis

"The Riley twins were born in the spring of 1797 during a ferocious storm that battered the Salisbury
Plain for three days together. Isabel entered the world with a flash of lightning, her shrieking drowned
out by a grand clap of thunder. Thirteen minutes later the storm abated, clouds parted, and Miranda
was handed to her father, blinking in rays of sun that poured through the window."

Isabel loves the comfort of home and the company of her family and few close friends. She doesn't care for the drama of the season or dream of gothic adventures as her sister does. She is wild and carefree in her own right, mischievous if need be, and the fun she has with her sister and closest friend is enough to satisfy her fancies. If only life took pleasure in forcing adventure on those who wished for it, instead of those who did not.

Miranda is a playful romantic, she looks forward to her first season with a desperation which rivals that of a starving man on his way to a feast. She can't wait to dress in beautiful gowns and dance the nights away with the height of the Ton. More than anything, she dreams of finding her prince charming and falling in love; but love is a game, and some play it far too well.
