First Edition of 'The Problems of Love' by Barbara Cartland Vintage Corgi Paperback 1978

Another classic Regency Romance from Barbara Cartland. In this fabulous vintage Corgi First Edition Paperback from the 1970's era, that comes to you almost as new we meet the dashing Marquis of Osminton.

Aloof and caddish, this rakish Beau is determined not to let his heart be warmed by romance of any kind. Set loosely around the court of the Prince Regent in 1811 this is a Regency Romance in the truest sense of the word.

"From Barbara Cartland, one of the most romantic and internationally famous writers, comes the charming, witty story of the Marquis of Osminton, who prided himself on being 'the most selfish man in London,' until his beautiful distant cousin Alexia entered his life and turned it upside down."

Much to his dismay the Marchioness mother, of the Marquis insists on chaperoning Alexia and her beautiful sister. How they navigate the winding paths of love and romance is told in this charming, sweet romance by the Queen of the Genre, Barbara Cartland.

As shown on the cover this vintage paperback was the 'First Publication' of this classic Barbara Cartland romance book in 1978.  Fabulous nostalgic 1970's cover art by Barbara Cartland's greatly favoured artist Francis Marshall.

With its vintage appeal and Barbara Cartland's signature style, this book is sure to captivate fans of classic romance literature.

Kittys Reader Notes & Book Excerpt

"The Marquis of Osminton prided himself on being the most selfish man in the Beau Ton, but his distant cousin Alexia Minton surprises him into an unselfish action.

His effort is, however, unsuccessful and the Marquis is extremely irritated when his mother the Dowager Marchioness insists on making good his mistake by chaperoning Alexia and her beautiful sister, Letty.

How the Marquis finds himself with innumerable problems to solve and how, despite every resolution to remain aloof, he becomes involved is told in this dramatic and exciting story set in Regency London."

Barbara Cartland's never fails to disappoint with her indulgent Regency Romances featuring ruthlessly handsome heroes, innocent but passionate heroines and their captivating love stories with the ultimate triumph of true love. Perfectly stress free Romantic escapism.
