A woman of a certain age who has three cats underfoot, and has the dream of filling her passport with stamps. Books, classical music, tea, cats, movies, art, fancy needlework, and anything else I can think of.
While I really do like the fact that this is based around historical figures, the story is dragged down to the level of a cheap, sleazy romance. A far better treatment of the story of Georgina, Duchess of Bedford can be found in Mistress of the Arts.
