Equal in station and age, it was foreseeable that neighbors Clara Battersley and Serena Coleridge would become fast friends. More surprising is that they would become lovers. A secret they tell no one. Giddy with love and the prospect of their London season, they are about to embark on a social whirl of fashionable, high season balls.
