The White Camellia - Juliet Greenwood

In 1909 the White Camellia ladies' tearooms were one of the first places women could go alone without causing scandal, and where the early suffrage movement could grow. Bea has lost everything after her father's bankruptcy. The family has to leave Tressillion in Cornwall, to live in London, and everyone expects Bea to rescue her mother and sister by marrying her wealthy cousin. A chance visit to the White Camellia opens new worlds to her, as she finds herself drawn into the suffrage campaign. But can she follow her heart without betraying her family?
