Odette's Marriage by Albert Delpit
The Story
Set in the chattering, ornate drawing rooms of 19th-century Paris, *Odette's Marriage kicks off with a whispered rumor. Odette de Cléry--beautiful, seemingly timid--can’t hide forever. Her fiancé, Comte Georges, proves to be of a noble but tightly questioning family, and to almost protect his name, a nasty relative starts small, niggling rumors hinting bad blood in her side. Whose daughter is the quiet girl? Is the family name genuine? It wouldn't be one troubled time barreling to surprising heartbreaking ties unless her father chooses a scandalous truth threatening bigger explosions for the sake of keeping everyone walking down the aisle. This book leans far more into shock than typical flowery rococo: an eerie anxiety sits up heavily between her virtuous at-home life.
