Restoration Affair

the long version

Callias is brought to the Restoration Court by her husband John Cobden, who married her for her money, but once there he neglects her. She is pursued by many amorous gallants, including the King, but has eyes only for Sir Richard Weston. His betrothal to Anne Laver, arranged by their families, is broken by her jealous cousin. Fate, in the guise of an angry John, a malicious Anne, and even the intervention of the King, separates them, and Callias faces terrible danger.
