Royal Punishment


Royal Punishment is #23 in the Camfield series and was published in July 1985. The handsome Marquis of Weybourne has been punished by the Queen by having to escort Clorinda, the Duke of Hyde's daughter, to the Balkans to marry Prince Frederik. While there, the country is overrun by revolutionaries and the marquis comes up with a desperate plan to save them both.

Yes, another risque cover! I'd love to know what Barbara Cartland really thought of these!! This one shows our couple in flight from the revolutionaries, but able to share a moment together!

  1. It is not the only cover
    this might appeal more

  2. The library hardcover editions which came out later than the paperback ones usually have different artwork. In this case, it's better! Thanks for the link.
