Book Overview

Jet, Her Face Or Her Fortune? is a novel written by Annie Edwards and originally published in 1878. The story follows the life of a young woman named Jet, who is torn between two potential paths in life: pursuing her own happiness and love, or securing her financial future by marrying a wealthy man. Jet is a beautiful and intelligent young woman, but she is also poor and struggling to make ends meet. Her mother is a former actress who has fallen on hard times, and Jet is determined to provide for her family. When she meets a handsome artist named Guy, she falls deeply in love with him, but he is not wealthy and cannot offer her the financial security she desires. At the same time, Jet is courted by a wealthy businessman named Mr. Linton, who offers her a life of luxury and security. Jet is torn between her love for Guy and her desire for financial stability, and she must ultimately choose between her heart and her head. The novel explores themes of love, money, and social status, and offers a glimpse into Victorian-era society and the expectations placed on women of the time. It is a compelling story of a young woman's struggle to find her place in the world, and the difficult choices she must make along the way.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
