Society's Most Scandalous Viscount (2015) - Plot & Excerpts
Nan was an accomplished housekeeper with the skills required for country living, so it took little for her to hitch two horses to the curricle and drive them out to the fields. The fair, a tradition in Brighton, spanned for an acre, the free public event drawing not just locals but any fun-seeker in the surrounding area who had received word of the attractions or noticed the gypsy caravan as it made its way to the coast. The fields were parceled into rectangular sections filled with wooden booths offering food and treats. Rich spicy aromas filled the air. The scent of sausage singed over an open flame married with fresh baked rolls. The briny scent of pickled oysters fresh from the ocean grabbed one’s attention, pungent and distinct. Across the way a pie seller hawked his tempting wares, the golden brown crusts and sweet smell of apples a feast to the senses. The fair depicted a world within itself, most especially the cacophony of noises, bagpipes, accordions, and laughter, which coalesced with a kaleidoscope of colors adorning the gypsies’ garb, vivid and embellished in contrast to the crowd of commoners.
