The Spanish Marriage

In this engaging tale, 18-year-old orphan Dorothea Cannowen finds herself at a Spanish convent, feeling trapped and without prospects. When Sir Douglas Matlin, whom she nursed back to health, offers her a chance to return to London and be introduced to society, he proposes a clever scheme: to marry her in Spain and annul the union upon arrival in England to safeguard her reputation. However, their arrangement becomes complicated by unexpected feelings, as love often does, challenging their original plans.
