Summary "Raised by guardians, Louisa's fate is intertwined with the neighbouring Stanley family: her closest friend is Miss Stanley, the eldest daughter; the man she loves is Walter, the son, and the jealousy of the younger daughter, Armida - whose husband Lord Belmour openly admires Louisa - propels the plot and causes the unwitting Louisa torment and distress. Despite the story's innumerable twists and turns, its conclusion brings Louisa reconciliation, a rightful inheritance and a happy marriage."--Publisher's description
