What Happened at the Ball?

The eldest sister of the Harpers, Eliza, managed to get married before the scandal that forever changed her family's life. However, the marriage did not bring her happiness, and her husband soon left for war and perished, leaving her with nothing but debts. Thanks to "Elegant Events"—the Harpers' enterprise for organizing balls and receptions—Eliza managed to stay afloat, and she decided that she would never marry again. But her old acquaintance, Nathaniel Stanton, the Earl of Foxted, intends to make her reconsider.
