Back in the era of black and white television, The Patty Duke Show reigned supreme. The premise revolved around a rambunctious American girl (Patty Lane) and her identical, sophisticated Scottish cousin (Cathy Lane), who comes to live with her extended American family. Although the two girls resemble one another, they are polar opposites in terms of their tastes and personalities, thus leading to conflict.
The Patty Duke Show Intro
Perhaps my memories of the Patty Duke Show might have had a little to do with fashioning the premise for my Victorian novel, Rake & Romance. Inspiration comes from unlikely sources sometimes!
The cousins inRake & Romance may resemble one another outwardly, but they could not be more different. Blackhearted Lord Gryphon is ungentlemanly in every respect whereas his cousin, Cody Gryphon, is everything worthy in a fellow–and a hero.
Like the first novel in the Beaucroft Girls series, a ruse is involved. Sweet and lovely Juliet isn’t quite as daring as her elder sister, however, and her efforts to create a creditable ruse don’t go quite as she plans.
Enjoy a sneak peek! ~ Suzanne
Excerpt:
Cody looked dashing and
sophisticated in his elegantly tailored clothes, and Juliet was seized with an
attack of nerves. Nevertheless, she cleared her throat and gave him a direct
glance meant to convey a businesslike demeanor rather than one of coquetry.
“I’d like you to ruin me.”
Despite her best intentions, her words were immediately followed by a blush.
Why couldn’t she be more dispassionate?
His eyebrows rose. “What?”
“Just a little ruination,
mind you. Nothing that can’t be hushed up in a few months or so.”
“I’m sorry, but I’m not
understanding you at all.”
“You’re aware, of course, of
the arrangement between Lord Moregate and your father regarding Stephanie and
Lord Elbourne.”
“Yes. My father is quite keen
on the subject.”
“What you don’t know is that
Augustus has been widely expected to propose to me.”
“Actually, I’d heard rumors
to that effect.”
Juliet’s eyes widened. “I
hope Stephanie hasn’t heard those rumors!”
“Not of which I’m aware.”
A sigh of relief. “Good.”
“I’m sorry for any injury
this arrangement has done to you. I can tell you’re quite partial to Lord
Elbourne.”
“I am partial to
Augustus, and would have accepted his proposal if he’d asked. But after a
careful examination of my feelings, I can truly say I’m not in love with him.”
“You’re not?” His eyebrows
drew together. “If your feelings aren’t injured, then what’s this about?”
“Once society learns Augustus
has thrown me off, I’ll become an object of ridicule. I mean to publicly throw
him off before anyone hears about his engagement to Stephanie. For that, I need
you to ruin me…ever so slightly.”
He looked at her askance.
“Won’t your reputation be forevermore tarnished?”
“I’d rather be a little
tarnished than humiliated, Mr. Gryphon. An earl is about to pass me over for
another woman. Do you really think my prospects will be improved by such a
spectacular rejection?” She averted her eyes. “If I’m to be ruined anyway, I’d
rather choose the method.”
“Have you no thought to my
reputation?”
She waved her hands, dismissively. “Stephanie says you’re a rake, doesn’t she? Therefore, nobody will think less of you than they already do now. Amongst your male acquaintances, I daresay the rumor of a passing indiscretion would be well received. Besides which, you’re leaving for Texas before too long, so what does your reputation matter?”
“Of course.” He folded his arms over his chest. “For the sake of curiosity, what sort of ruination did you have in mind?
