The Honorable Jim is a lively romance of honor, loyalty, and second chances.

When scandal threatens his reputation and love seems beyond reach, Jim must prove that beneath his lighthearted exterior lies courage, honor, and devotion. With Baroness Orczy's signature blend of romance, wit, and high society drama, the novel unfolds as both a redemption story and a celebration of steadfast love. Jim's journey from reckless youth to honourable man offers readers a tale of hope, growth, and the enduring power of character.


About the Author

Baroness Emmuska Orczy (1865–1947) was a Hungarian-born British novelist, playwright, and artist, best remembered as the creator of the legendary hero The Scarlet Pimpernel. Born in Tarnaörs, Hungary, she moved to London in her youth and established herself in literary circles with her flair for romantic adventure and historical drama. Orczy's groundbreaking novel The Scarlet Pimpernel (1905) introduced readers to Sir Percy Blakeney, the daring English aristocrat who, in disguise, rescued French nobles from the guillotine during the Revolution—an archetype that inspired countless masked and double-identity heroes in popular culture, from Zorro to Batman. Beyond the Pimpernel series, she penned detective stories such as The Old Man in the Corner, historical romances, and even works on Hungarian life and folklore. Her works combined suspense, wit, and a deep love for heroism, earning her international acclaim. Orczy continued writing until her final years, leaving behind a legacy as one of the pioneers of modern adventure and mystery fiction
