Hen Fever: A Sapphic Victorian Romance - Paperback
by Olivia Waite (Author)
Lydia Wraxhall is on her best behavior every day of the year-except one: the annual Bickerton Christmas Poultry Show. On that day she brushes her birds, sharpens her tongue, and engages in the closest thing the village knows to war.
Harriet Boyne is a soldier's widow reeling from the worst years of her life. She and her friends have inherited a manor on the village outskirts, and Harriet is looking forward to a quiet holiday far from the anguish of the battlefield. But a dispute over a flock of loose chickens - a rare local breed, which Lydia thinks could be champions and Harriet thinks could be delicious - draws Harriet into the competition under Lydia's grudging guidance. Harriet's frozen heart is thawed by Lydia's gentleness, and lonely Lydia blossoms under Harriet's keen regard. But the day of the poultry show is fast approaching, and everyone's drawing up battle lines. And in the contest between secret love and public glory, there can only be one winner.Made with care and unconditionally loved by our customers, this signature bestseller exceeds all expectations.
