Summary
Tracy Rees's latest novel The Elopement is an elaborately imagined historical novel full of delight and temptation, spanning the luxury and poverty of late Victorian England.
A wealthy heiress . . .
1897. Rowena Blythe is wealthy, entitled and beautiful. As her twenty-fourth birthday approaches, she’s expected to marry – and to marry well.
An unsuitable match . . .
Her parents commission a portrait of Rowena to help cement her reputation as a great society beauty. However, Bartek, the artist’s young assistant, is unlike any man Rowena has met before – wild, romantic and Bohemian. While society at large awaits the announcement of Rowena’s engagement, it is Bartek who captures Rowena’s heart along with her likeness.
A scandal in society . . .
Rowena knows her parents would never approve of Bartek, who in their eyes is nothing but a penniless foreigner. As her feelings grow, she has no-one to turn to. Dare she risk everything for love?

Fabulous!
The wait for a new Tracy Rees novel feels too long, whilst the devouring of it when it does arrive happens all too quickly! One of my favourite authors. I was delighted to realise the admirable and lovely Olive Westallen features heavily in this novel as she did in The Rose Garden. I hope we will hear more from her and the other wonderful pioneering women in the very near future!

Another wonderful gem from Tracy Rees.
Story - excellent
Narrator - also excellent.
I have listened to all of Tracy Rees' books, and this one didn't disappoint.
Really interesting characters and a truly heartwarming story. What I didn't realise is that although it can be enjoyed as a stand alone novel, it is actually a sequel to The Rose Garden, which I went back and listened to again before listening to this one.

Disappointing
I’m afraid I did not get into this book like all the others .. it was lacking in story and I was disappointed… I thought more would be made of the nasty Bartec… but it made the story quite flat … I’ll go back and read Amy Snow which is her best book by far ..

Good story but not a fan of computer narration
Don’t like the computerised narration but got used to it enough to enjoy the story. Love that this book was a sequel to another of the authors books that I enjoyed.
