Book excerpt: ‘IT IS A CURSE TO BE BORN A GIRL . . .’ Take a peek into the diary of Panth (never enquire as to her given name), a young woman knocking on the gilded door of adult life and high society. But kicking up one’s heels at the Café de Paris does not come easily to a girl navigating: 1. Poverty (even the genteel kind), thanks to her papa’s sad demise 2. A lack of any experience whatsoever with the opposite sex, of course not counting Freddie Spencer (and he wasn’t that sort of experience, anyhow) 3. Multiple sisters with ideas, a grandmother with opinions and one recalcitrant sheep Panth knows there is more for her out in the world – it’s 1924, for goodness’ sake – and that could include swoonsome American with excellent teeth, Buck Buchanan. The question is – how in the name of Tatler is she to claim it? A hilarious coming-of-age story for fans of I Capture the Castle and Bridgerton from Carnegie-nominated, bestselling author Joanna Nadin.
