In 18th century France, women had few choices and little chance to shape their destiny.Catherine dreams of a marriage as supportive and tender as that of her parents, but on her wedding night her new husband relates his own vision.Catherine's desire for sweet domesticity is crushed when Robert Picard reveals himself to be a man of his time, and assumes he will have the freedom to cavort without censure among the pantheon of women he has always kept. Trapped in the gilded cage of the chateau Lac d'Or, Catherine attempts to escape only to be cast into a fresh hell from which release means being sent on a treacherous journey she could never imagine.

Ignorance of Means | Jennifer Oakley Denslow

Went to this book signing yesterday. Listened to the author read a portion and get a book signed. Really good story of a 17th century girl beginning life with a chosen Duke. As the author says she gets chased up a tree and has lots of rocks thrown at her. Good read.

Ignorance of Means | Jennifer Oakley Denslow

What a great day! My first novel is listed on Litsy! I think one of the reasons I love Catherine is because she loves books the way I do, and has from a very young age. Of course, I'm a real person and she's a fictional character, but why let that stand in the way of friendship?
