Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

In the quiet corner of her bedroom, Beatrice, a young lady in the Regency era begins a diary, never imagining how faithfully it will keep her secrets. As a girl on the brink of womanhood, she records stolen glances at balls, the small rebellions of the heart, and the careful hopes placed upon marriage, duty, and love. Her ink captures a world of candlelit evenings and unspoken rules, where every word must be weighed and every feeling concealed. Years later, when the Regency period has long given way to the reign of Victoria, and her life is irrevocably changed, Beatrice opens a second diary. Now older, wiser, and tempered by loss and endurance, she writes with a different hand and a sharper truth. The dreams of her youth linger in the margins, but experience has rewritten her understanding of devotion, regret, and the quiet power of survival. Through memory and reflection, the two diaries begin to speak to one another - revealing how time reshapes love, and how the woman she has become must reckon with the girl she once was. Told through the intimate pages of two lives lived by the same heart, this book is a moving contemplation on youth and maturity, expectation and reality, and the courage it takes to tell oneself the truth - no matter the cost.
