Mistress Mine
ISBN: 9781530834327 / Angielski / Miękka / 388 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In 1876, Louise St Quentin was sixteen. She was an orphan and the rich owner of a huge estate.

But Louise had the rather unfortunate tendency of listening to her heart rather than her reason. The end of the nineteenth century was terribly exciting, and Louise wanted to discover everything - the adventure lying at the end of the railway track, romantic music, the modern cuisine in the new Parisian restaurants, and impressionist painting. Was her...
