However, her life takes a dramatic turn when she meets the charming and enigmatic Lord Charles, who sweeps her off her feet.As Amelia falls deeper in love with Lord Charles, she discovers that he is not who he appears to be. He is actually the son of a powerful duke, and his family disapproves of their relationship. Despite the challenges they face, Amelia and Lord Charles continue to see each other in secret.Meanwhile, Amelia's father arranges for her to marry a wealthy but cruel man, who she despises. Amelia must decide whether to follow her heart or marry for financial security.The Empress of Hearts is a story of love, betrayal, and the power of true love to overcome all obstacles. It is a gripping tale that will keep readers on the edge of their seats until the very end.1928. E. Barrington (the pen name of L. Adams Beck) begins The Empress of Hearts: The most famous necklace of history. Rippling diamond splendors, it lay on its bed of cool pearly satin which enhanced the fierce glitter of the magnificent stones. Such a necklace had never been seen before in the story of the world's great jewels-could not have been; for the means of procuring it did not exist. Not before the middle of the eighteenth century could men so have angled and netted the markets of the world to catch those radiant slippery fish of jewels. India aided from her Golconda, and Brazil searched dull earth for the cold hidden fire whose fame rang trumpet-tongued, and ancient caskets of high nobles were counted over in the hope that their owners might be induced by princely prices to sell.
