I need to know more about Frederica.
Frederica is about a very bored and upright Marquess and Frederica the eldest daughter of somewhat impoverished country family and all their hijinks. It starts with Alverstoke (the Marquess) receiving unwanted guests, in the form of his sister and cousin, demanding he throw a come out ball for their daughters (with each assuming she would be the hostess of course).
He then gets a note from Frederica asking for a favor on the grounds that she’s a very distant cousin. He’s planning on refusing Frederica when her sister, who is extremely beautiful, shows up at which point he decides to throw a ball after all and invite this extremely beautiful girl who will outshine his cousin and niece and give his annoying relations their comeuppance… at which point he gets entangled with Frederica’s whole family and also falls in love with Frederica and it’s great and possibly familiar sounding if you’ve read the new Cat Sebastian book.
(WHICH AGAIN: NOT A COMPLAINT)
