{"product_id":"a-bright-young-thing-a-novel","title":"A Bright Young Thing: A Novel","description":"In early 1930s England, a young firebrand finds herself on a fraught and dangerous road to independence.\n\nIn 1931 England, Astra Davies defies all the conventions. Clever, witty, and determined, Astra smokes, drinks, plays a mean piano, and gallivants around London with her beloved Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. But Astra finds herself in a tight spot when her parents die suddenly, leaving her with a raft of debts. With few marketable skills and a closet full of family secrets, Astra has two choices: find a rich husband or make her own way.\n\nA fiercely driven woman like Astra is not about to cast her lot in with a man, especially out of desperation. And since the only man she fancies--Jeremy Harris, the Earl of Dunreaven--is as hard up as she is, her way forward is clear. But the path to independence is a bumpy one fraught with hazards and heartbreaking choices. A blackmailing socialite threatens to derail Astra's reputation. A brainless business partner just might drive her even further into debt. And a series of bruising scandals dogs her every step of the way.\n\nFrom the bustle of London to the country estates of the aristocracy, Astra embarks on a journey that tests her brains, wit, and mettle as never before. But one way or another, Astra Davies is dead set on proving she's no ordinary Bright Young Thing.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1643855336\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.1643855336.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Moore, Brianne\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Book has little sign of wear or use  \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Blue Vase Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43577431457853,"sku":"BVV.1643855336.VG","price":14.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/4225\/9261\/files\/1643855336-0.jpg?v=1788645303","url":"https:\/\/www.bluevasebooks.com\/products\/a-bright-young-thing-a-novel","provider":"Blue Vase Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
