A Summer's Romance is a novel written by Mary Healy and published in 1872. The story is set in the summer of 1850 and follows the romantic adventures of two young women, Mary and Emily, as they spend the season in a seaside town in England. Mary, a wealthy heiress, is looking for love and adventure, while Emily, her companion, is more reserved and practical.As the summer progresses, Mary meets and falls in love with a handsome young man named Charles, who is also wealthy and well-connected. However, their relationship is complicated by the fact that Charles is engaged to another woman, and Mary must navigate the social expectations and conventions of the time to win his heart.Meanwhile, Emily becomes involved with a local doctor, who is dedicated to helping the poor and disadvantaged in the town. As they work together to improve the lives of the less fortunate, Emily finds herself drawn to him and must decide whether to pursue a relationship with him or remain faithful to her duties as Mary's companion.Throughout the novel, Healy explores themes of love, class, and social norms, as well as the challenges faced by women in Victorian England. A Summer's Romance is a charming and engaging story that offers a glimpse into the world of the Victorian upper class and the complexities of romance and relationships in that era.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
