Mrs. Ambrosia Bloomington, now a widow, is ready to start a new life amongst Mayfair elites without the overarching reach of her late husband, Mr. Harrison Bloomington. With her trunks loaded safely onto her own private carriage, she’s ready to face the world as an independent woman in Regency London. She does not, however, bargain for cocksure Frenchman, Mr. Charles Cochran Bateman coming along and turning her very ordinary journey into the adventure of a lifetime. She does not bargain for his laughter, his enthusiasm, nor his Joie de vie. And blast and fiddlesticks, she certainly is not expecting to experience the sparks that charge the air between them. And, it seems, apparently, neither is he.
