Publisher's Synopsis
When Madelyn E. Lowell thought of England, she thought of Queen Elizabeth II, the round table, London, and Jane Austen. However, upon arriving to a village outside of Exeter to claim an inherited manor house, she finds a small herd of giant horses, a ruined manor house with a giant wearing black leather pants in the cellar, and an arthritic elderly man with a twinkle in his eye who assures Maddie that all would be right in her world with a nice cup of tea.
Maddie was teaching in a private college prep girls school in a suburb of Boston when she received a package from a solicitor in Exeter, England containing a short letter explaining that she had been left Lowell Manor and estate and needed to claim it immediately or the property would be sold for taxes. There was included a delightful old painting of a golden-stoned Georgian manor house and gardens. Maddie quits her job, which she didn't like because being a special education teacher she had a hard time teaching spoiled rich girls who were only interested in clothes, boys, and celebrities, sublets her apartment, and decides she will move permanently to her new home and life in England as Lady Madelyn Esmeralda.
