An interesting vignette. It sounds much like the beginning of a poignant love story. In so few words you have raised my curiosity. If you are simply trying out, you are doing well.

Comment from BethShelby
This is a nice flash of historical fiction. The Lady Elise has to consider if love trumps money. I would imagine she might choose her own path at least until until Papa returns from Norfolk.

Hello there Zanya. I happen to love Regency Romances and hold quite a collection of paperbacks. ;). This opening sequence is a great set up for a wonderful romance and love story. Wish I could read the rest of it... hint, hint. LOL. Great job.

Zanya:
I believe your historical writing wings are in great shape. In fact, I would love to see you develop this into a longer story. Papa controlling the purse strings was a very real issue 'back in the day.' Good luck in the contest.

Comment from RodG
I like how you SET YOUR SCENE in I suspect the Victorian era with aristocratic characters. It's easy to visualize Lady Elise murmuring about her soon-to-be freedom even as her mother eavesdrops. The conflict is typical: she pines for a lover below her social class. This is like an opening scene and you've hooked my interest. Rod
