Advice for Young Ladies on Happy Marriage

England, early nineteenth century. Twenty-year-old Kitty Talbot, who is responsible for her four younger sisters, needs to find a huge sum of money in a short period to pay off her parents' debts to creditors. Otherwise, they might end up... without a roof over their heads. And even if that roof is leaking and the rooms are quite sparsely furnished, any means are good to preserve the home where childhood was spent! Kitty decides on a desperate measure – to get a marriage proposal from some wealthy gentleman from high society. After all, those who do not play do not win, and risk is just part of the game. What Kitty does not expect is to meet a very perceptive gentleman – Lord Radcliffe, the older brother of the wonderfully rich Archibald de Lacey. The lord, who accurately guesses Kitty's motives as a money seeker, is determined to ruin her plans at any cost... English traditions, English manners, English humor from the "modern Jane Austen"!
