Summary

"At Love's Cost" by Charles Garvice is a tale from a time gone by, where young Stafford Orme's unexpected trek into the wild with his skeptical pal Edmund Howard, transforms into a journey of self-discovery and budding romance. Beginning with open and raw exchanges between friends, the narrative quickly sweeps Stafford into a world of striking landscapes and an intriguing connection with Ida Heron, a woman embodying both beauty and strength. As Stafford falls for Ida against the backdrop of challenges related to family obligations, the story weaves together his growing feelings with their social positions. The reader gets drawn into the developing romantic premise by using detailed characters and atmospheric elements.

About the Author

Charles Garvice was a prolific British writer of over 150 romance novels, who also used the female pseudonym Caroline Hart. He was a popular author in the UK, the United States and translated around the world. He was ‘the most successful novelist in England’, according to Arnold Bennett in 1910. He published novels selling over seven million copies worldwide by 1914, and since 1913 he was selling 1.75 million books annually, a pace which he maintained at least until his death. Despite his enormous success, he was poorly received by literary critics, and is almost forgotten today.
