    "His stepdaughter, Lady Selina Napier, was just nineteen, elegant, slender and fragile in build, but strong in spirit." - always fragile...

    “When I am allowed to be.  My stepfather thinks ladies should only ride sleepy donkeys, so that’s what he keeps in the stables.  Which means that you only have my word for my riding ability.” - donkeys are beautiful, loving sentient creatures that have been mercilessly abused 💔

    Feeling in a festive mood the Marquis invited them to join his table, but the four servants were shocked at this breach of protocol. - i wonder if Queen Elizabeth mixes with her staff🤔

    Everyone else ran forward to enjoy the spectacle.  Somebody took charge of the horse that stood breathing heavily, but otherwise content to have had his fun. - doubtful the horse was having fun. Animals aren't stupid...

    “If they’re a man’s shoes, you’ll need small.” “No, I won’t.” "Why ever not?” “Because I have big feet,” Selina retorted crossly. The tailor returned with a large selection of shining boots, only the largest of which was big enough for Selina’s far from dainty feet. - this is the first time Cartland has mentioned a tall woman has "normal" feet. Usually she endows female members of the British aristocracy with ridiculous malnutritioned physiques 😂

    “If you imagine that I am going to ask advice from someone capable of buying that dreadful monstrosity that is still, unfortunately, visible beneath your coat, then you have windmills in your head!” -Windmills 😁😂

    “Politics?”  She sounded a bit startled.  “But what’s the point when they have no vote?” “But they will have one day.  The world changes.” “But how can they use a vote when they have no education?” - Castleton was a man ahead of his time!

    “I do hope my bare feet don’t offend you,” he said apologetically. - bare feet offends 😖
