This book presents a typical Victorian-era romance full of unexpected twists typical of Mary Elizabeth Brandon. It tells of a young girl making bad decisions and being tempted by a man. Clarissa is well brought up girl who cares for others and is swayed too much by them in matters of the heart. There were times when the heroine was making all the correct decisions, according to the norms of the time, but they were the wrong ones, which only led her to misery and nearly ruined.

Moving away somewhat from the melodrama-heavy plots of her earlier works, Mary Elizabeth Braddon's The Lovels of Arden is a sweeping family epic that will appeal to fans of Jane Austen or Downton Abbey. With the family fortune and reputation on the line, the Lovels are forced to take desperate measures. Will daughter Clarissa be able to balance her familial obligations and her own quest for happiness?
