9780312963910. New condition. Mass-market paperback. Language: English. Pages: 486. Mass market (rack) paperback. Glued binding. 486 p. Carolyn Browne was a poor bookseller's daughter and an enlightened thinker, delighting London with her scathingly witty columns, written under the name Charles Copperville. Penetrating the town's gilded salons in the male disguise, Carolyn soon throws her barbs at the wrong man--the enigmatic Russian prince, Nicholas Sverayov. Nicholas is furious to find himself lampooned by Copperville, and quickly discovers Carolyn's dearly held secret. Now, as the two spar, a new game begins--a game of deception and pride, of longing and chance.
