At Love's Cost is a classic romance novel written by Charles Garvice. The story revolves around the life of a beautiful young woman named Violet Tempest who is forced to marry a man she does not love due to her family's financial troubles. However, her heart belongs to another man, the dashing and wealthy Captain Reginald Carlyon. Violet finds herself torn between her duty to her family and her desire for true love. As the story progresses, Violet's marriage to the brutish and abusive Sir John Tempest becomes increasingly unbearable, and she finds solace in her secret meetings with Captain Carlyon. But their love is not without obstacles, as Sir John becomes increasingly suspicious of his wife's behavior and sets out to uncover the truth about her relationship with Captain Carlyon. The novel is set in the Victorian era, and the author skillfully captures the social norms and expectations of the time. The characters are well-developed, and the plot is full of twists and turns that keep the reader engaged until the very end. At Love's Cost is a timeless tale of love, sacrifice, and the triumph of the human spirit over adversity.She tried to laugh, tried to laugh scornfully; for indeed she was filled with scorn for this sudden inexplicable weakness, a weakness which had never assailed her before in all her life, a weakness which filled her breast with rage; but from under the closed lids two tears crept and rolled down her cheek; and against her will she made confession of this same foolish weakness.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
