Our Admirable Betty

Lady Elizabeth Carlyon carries a nickname "Bewitching Bet" because those who can see her can't think or dream of another woman. She is staying at her aunt Belinda and her admirers follow her and woo her, but she catches the eye of Major John D'arcy who catches her stealing his cherries. There is a significant age difference between them, but they both become bewitched by each other, not realizing the chaos their affair is causing. Many are not happy about them, but there are some who are willing to act against their love.
