This story has me hooked. American English is my first language, although it's been years since I read Regency fiction. I'm also using a dictionary... and loving learning new words.

Your description above about entails was very helpful. Sad situation that Cedric is in, but he seems to be making the most of it, and has his own unique solutions. He certainly seems to have resigned himself to not finding his own happiness. Looking forward to him finding hope of a positive future.

The posting schedule is great. Please continue!
