Mary Anne by Daphne Du Maurier
Friday Finds is hosted by Should Be Reading.
Here’s the blurb from the publisher:
An ambitious, stunning, and seductive young woman, Mary Anne finds the single most rewarding way to rise above her miserable cockney world: she will become the mistress to a royal duke. In doing so, she provokes a scandal that rocks Regency England. Mary Anne glitters with sex, scandal, corruption, and the privileged world of high society.
Based on the true story of one of du Maurier’s own distant relatives, Mary Anne’s love of money and the men who spend it embroil her in risks that threaten her very existence.
How can I go wrong with this one? I love the new cover too.

Friday Find: The Music Room by William Fiennes
I don’t think you can go wrong with this 😀 And I’m adding it to my wish list. Is it a Sourcebook book? They’re quality in materials (covers and paper) can’t be beat! r
Yes, it’s from Sourcebooks!
Um, “their quality…”
If only I’d learn to edit before submitting my comments *grin*
I’m embarrassed to say I’ve never read any du Maurier, but I love that cover too!
Oh Kathy… you really must get Rebecca in!
I’ve not even heard of this but I’m a fan of du Maurier so I’ll have to look for it.
Oh man, that one does sound good (plus I really like the book cover)!
Anything by Daphne de Maurier is great.
Sex, scandal and corruption? Sounds like a fun read to me. Thanks for suggesting it.
I know. I’m all over it. Well, soon I will be.
It is a great cover! But the books sounds terrific! I haven’t heard of this one but I’m going to add it to my tbr list! Thank you for posting about it, Ti!
Scandal based on a true story sounds good!
I like it!
That cover is stunning! Makes me want to buy it just to look at it.
