Clarissa und die unverheirateten Frauenzimmer
By Alicia Cameron, Daniela Maizner. 2017
Im England der Regency-Zeit steht Mrs. Thornes Akademie der jungen Damen nach dem Tod von Clarissas Mutter kurz vor der…
Schließung. Die junge 18-jährige Clarissa Thorne und ihre drei Freundinnen, die als Lehrerinnen in der Akademie tätig waren, sehen sich daher gezwungen, als mittellose, unverheiratete Frauenzimmer in den Schoß ihrer jeweiligen Familien zurückzukehren, um ein Leben in Schuft und Schinderei zu führen. Doch es kommt, dass Clarissa das riesige Anwesen Ashcroft erbt und somit sich und ihren Freundinnen einen Ausweg bieten kann – hinein in ein Leben voller Unabhängigkeit und Abenteuer. Sie müssen das Anwesen mit wenig Geld und noch weniger Erfahrung wieder auf Vordermann bringen. Können die pragmatische Miss Micklethwaite, die ewig romantische, aber bereits alternde Miss Appleby und die wunderschöne Miss Oriana Petersham ihrem Schicksal entkommen? Zumindest müssen sie den Versuch wagen und die lebhafte und impulsive Clarissa unterstützen. Wie dem auch sei, ihre Verwandten haben andere Pläne… Als sie auf ihrer Reise den Earl of Grandiston und seinen Gefährten (einen ergebenen Verehrer der bildschönen Oriana) treffen, wird jedoch eine Kette unvorhergesehener Ereignisse losgetreten. Dem Abenteuer fügen die Damen noch einen Schuss Romantik hinzu.Clarissa et les femmes sans importance

mort de la mère de Clarissa, madame Thorne, survenue un an plus tôt. Voilà qui laisse cette jeune femme de dix-huit ans et ses trois amies, toutes enseignantes à l’Académie, sans autre choix que de retourner auprès de leur famille comme ces parentes pauvres, ces femmes sans importance qui doivent se résoudre à obéir au doigt et à l’œil à tous ceux qui les entourent, sans espoir d’une vie meilleure. Toutefois, Clarissa vient tout juste d’hériter d’Ashcroft, un grand domaine malheureusement fort négligé, et elle offre à ses compagnes une autre solution : s’enfuir avec elle vers une vie d’indépendance et d’aventure. Elles devront remettre le domaine en état avec somme toute peu d’argent et aucune expérience. La raisonnable mademoiselle Micklethwaite, l’infatigable romantique mademoiselle Appleby et la sublime Oriana Petersham peuvent-elles tromper leur destin ? Pour veiller au bien-être de cette énergique, mais impulsive Clarissa, elles devront au moins tenter leur chance. Il va sans dire que leurs parents ont d’autres plans pour elles… Une rencontre avec le comte de Grandiston et son compagnon, un soupirant de la divine Oriana, sur la route lancera une série d’événements hilarants. Peut-être que l’amour se mêlera également à l’aventure pour ces dames…Defiant: MacKinnon's Rangers 3 (MacKinnon's Rangers)

cerrar debido al fallecimiento de la madre de la joven Clarissa, hace ya un año. Esto deja a Clarissa Thorne, de sólo dieciocho años, y a sus tres amigas sin más opción que acudir a la caridad de sus familias, para ser por siempre las despreciadas "parientes pobres" - y atender a todo deseo y necesidad que ellos manifiesten por el resto de sus vidas. Pero Clarissa acaba de heredar Ashcroft, una gran hacienda prácticamente desmoronada, y ella ofrece a sus amigas una salida - huir con ella en busca de una vida de independencia y aventuras. Ellas tendrán que poner la hacienda en marcha con poco dinero y nula experiencia. ¿Podrán la sensata Srta. Micklethwaite, la romántica, pero ya madura, Srta. Appleby y la hermosa Srta. Oriana Petersham escapar de su triste destino? Para mantener a la impulsiva y vivaz Clarissa vigilada, tendrán que intentarlo al menos. Pero quizás sus familiares tengan otros planes. Conociendo en el camino al Conde de Grandiston y a su amigo (un ferviente pretendiente de la preciosa Oriana) pondrán entretenidos eventos en marcha. Y quizás a la aventura, las damas deban añadir algo de romance...Clarissa y las mujeres sin importancia
