Summary "Lady Rosamond's Secret: A Romance of Fredericton" by Rebecca Agatha Armour is a historical romance novel written in the late 19th century. Set against the backdrop of Fredericton during the early 1820s, the story intertwines the relationships and social dynamics of its characters, particularly focusing on Lady Rosamond Seymour, who is grappling with her father's wishes and her own desires. The narrative promises a blend of historical authenticity and emotional depth as it explores themes of duty, love, and personal agency. At the start of the story, we are introduced to a picturesque September sunset in Fredericton, where Mary Douglas, daughter of Governor Sir Howard Douglas, engages in playful conversation with her father about gardening. Their familial bond is highlighted, showcasing moments of affection and camaraderie. Lady Rosamond, a friend of Mary, also plays a significant role, revealing a deeper complexity in her character as she struggles with the implications of her father's plans for her future concerning a proposed marriage to cousin Gerald Bereford. The opening portion sets a tone of introspection and societal expectation, foreshadowing the internal conflicts that will shape Lady Rosamond's journey throughout the novel.
