Miss Simpkins' School: Lydia (2013) - Plot & Excerpts
When would any partner realize she could concentrate on her steps or her conversation, but never both at the same time? Or perceive that my lack of concentration is due to a lack of interest? For that matter, when would her mama give in and let her miss these excruciating evenings? So often Lydia spent the evening as a wallflower trying to look as if she didn’t care that the gentlemen only danced with her if pressed to do so by their hostess. Like her partner of that moment. It was obvious he’d had no intention of requesting the pleasure—or she decided as she looked the anguish on his face, the non-pleasure—of her as his partner. The problem was, if she was honest, she only cared about being a wallflower because it drew the wrath of her ambitious parent. Tonight, however, she was partnered. If the Countess of Helford decided you would dance with a wallflower, dance you did. To give him credit, Ferdy Littlethorpe schooled his expression and fixed a vacuous smile on his face.
