The Pursuit of Love
The Radlett and Montdore Novels · Book 1Description
In the glittering, rule-bound world of the English upper class, love arrives with the same inevitability as the Season’s endless parties—yet it rarely behaves as society expects. Following the earlier adventures of cousins shaped by tradition and longing, this sequel tracks how romance, ambition, and family pressure collide as characters chase happiness in ways that are thrilling, scandalous, and deeply human. With Mitford’s razor-sharp wit and affectionate satire, the novel skewers class performance, fashionable monotony, and the myths people tell themselves about destiny and respectability. Expect a fast, stylish read full of memorable voices, emotional misfires, and the recurring question of whether passion can survive the demands of “proper” life.
