Lyndon Sisters

by Julia Quinn 2 books in this series

The Lyndon Sisters books follow Victoria and Eleanor Lyndon, daughters of a country vicar. Everything and the Moon reunites Victoria with the aristocratic first love from whom she was separated by family deception, while Brighter Than the Sun gives Eleanor a sudden marriage of convenience with an earl facing an inheritance deadline.

The two romances examine class, money and parental authority from different directions. One couple must reconstruct trust after seven years of resentment; the other must build intimacy after marrying before trust has formed. Together they present sister stories within the same Regency family.
