Summary

"Leslie's Loyalty" by Charles Garvice is a story set in the late 1800s that follows a lovely young woman named Leslie Lisle in the quiet seaside town of Portmaris. The story looks at big ideas like love and sticking by people, especially how Leslie deals with her dad and a young duke who has a disability. Leslie is a kind and supportive daughter, always there for her father, even though his dreams of being an artist are a bit out of reach. Their calm life changes when the duke arrives, and he has to deal with how people see him because of his disability, opening the door for a story with lots of feelings and characters trying to find where they belong.

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.
