Here's a little about Amelia
Encore Edition 2 in the series of Great Lakes Romances® (Set in Chicago and Springfield, Illinois, 1903. Please note: This novel was first published in 1904 under the title Her Infinite Variety.) Amelia Ansley’s anticipation of marriage to Morley Vernon was spoiled by only one small matter—his involvement in politics. The office of State Senator seemed unimportant and bothersome. Why couldn’t he get elected to the Senate in Washington? Morley Vernon’s loyalty to party politics was equaled only by his loyalty to Amelia Ansley—until Maria Burley Greene stepped into his life. This woman attorney who was also a suffragette was the embodiment of exquisite daintiness, wholly feminine and alluring. Impulsively he offered to promote her cause, only later realizing that this decision could either make or break both his political career and his relationship with Amelia.
