Her refusal leaves them both at loose ends. He wants a marriage that is actually a business arrangement, with no attachment, romantic or otherwise. He is beautiful - a Corinthian - but emotionless. Her father finally gives her an ultimatum: marry Matthew Carstairs, the Earl of Langdon, or go to live as an indentured servant with her Great Aunt Agatha in Yorkshire.Ĭlarissa agrees to meet Lord Langdon, but she turns down his proposal flat. Her father is beyond ready for her to be married and out of his house (she's already had 4 Seasons on the marriage mart), but she will agree to nothing less than a love match. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as \"1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores\", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan.This is a delightful, easy read and the perfect way to start my personal mini-challenge this year of reading traditional Regency romances. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost \"in the stacks\" for as long as they wish.
A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children\'s paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock.
We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We have over 1 Million books for sale on our website and another 1 Million books for sale in our 3 locations. Wonder Book and Video has been in business since 1980 and online since 1997. With 3 stores less than 1 hour outside the DC/Metropolitan area (1 in Gaithersburg, 1 in Frederick and 1 in Hagerstown, MD), we have the largest selection of books in the tri-state area.
