A Magical Moment

A Magical Moment is #140 in the Camfield series and was published in April 1995. Lencia deceives her stepmother and takes her sister across the channel to visit chateau in France! She disguises herself as a widow and falls in love with the handsome Duc de Montrichard. I can't tell if the circular thing is a broach or some kind of decoration. Weird. Bring back the illustrated covers! Part

of the problem is that I have trouble remembering the stories and plots without a visual.

BC.com now has an illustration for this book, which I've added. Much prettier than the US one.

The Loveless Marriage

The Loveless Marriage is #139 in the Camfield series and was published in March 1995. Fyna MacSteel is promoted as a bride to the Earl of Braradale in an attempt for peace among their clans. They agree and begin as friends while planning King George's royal visit to Scotland. This is the first of the non-couple covers. It's odd to see and hard for me, since I like having a cover with the hero and heroine on it. It's a long way from our delightful Francis Marshall illustrated books! The next 6 left in the Camfield series have these covers. Maybe they knew the series was coming to an end.

Edited: Added the new photo from the released Eternal Collection for your viewing. I really like this photo of our couple.

The Innocent Imposter

The Innocent Imposter is #138 in the Camfield series and was published in February 1995. Ursa is playing a role and impersonating her married sister, Penelope, as a guest on an estate. The Marquis of Charnwood needs a temporary fiancee and Ursa decides to play that role as herself! Can she keep the two apart and keep her sister from becoming angry with her?

On this cover, we see the hero visiting the heroine at her bedside. She is obviously not expecting him as she is reading a book. The colors are vivid and we see that they like each other and maybe are a bit in love.

The Incomparable

The Incomparable is #137 in the Camfield series and was published in January 1995. Amorita Howe's nanny needed an operation and to raise the money, she and her brother hope to win a prize at a contest being held by the Earl of Eldridge.

On this cover by Forlag, we see a bored hero as he glances at the angelic heroine while at a dinner party. The Indian girl next to him is sultry and we see servants in the background of this well lit room. The heroine seems the good and pure girl on the cover and we know that is who always wins the heart of the hero in Barbara Cartland's books!

Saved by a Saint

Saved by a Saint is #136 in the Camfield series and was published in December 1994. The disillusioned Marquis of Melverley left London for his country estate and saved Christina from an unwanted suitor. She helps him when his evil cousin threatens his life to a glorious conclusion in this regency story.

This simple cover fits the smaller size that is now illustrating the books. We see the hero climbing in through an opening of a barn to help save the heroine! Both wear daytime garb and the heroine may even be wearing a nightgown!

The Eyes of Love

The Eyes of Love is #135 in the Camfield series and was published in November 1994. Vara McDorn becomes a guide to the new Earl of Dornoch, who has been cursed in India and is now blind. She saves him from a traitor and prays fervantly for him to regain his sight.

We see our couple kissing in this cover by Forlag. Our heroine wears a very bright yellow bustle gown while the hero is in traditional Scottish kilt and shirt. The cannon seems an odd prop and it's hard to see where exactly they stand. The size of the picture isn't helpful.

The Spirit of Love

The Spirit of Love is #134 in the Camfield series and was published in October 1994. Odella Wayne tells the Marquis of Midhurst about the spy she's overheard and is given a task to help save the life of the member of the royal family!

We see our couple dressed elegantly as if for a ballroom. The hero is helping the heroine, who looks as if she has fainted. I like the wreath of flowers that decorate the heroine's hair in a style not quite in keeping with the regency mode.
