Against Her Nature

<b>A modern-day take on <i>Vanity Fair, </i> from bestselling novelist<i></i>Elizabeth Buchan. </b> <p> Love, money and children... <p> Life is a risk, however much we try to protect ourselves... <p> Unlike the Frants living their quiet ordered lives in the village of Appleford, Tess and Becky are of the generation that believes it can have everything. Highflyers in the high-octane world of London's high-finance, they move through the opportunists, the short-termists, the sharks, the bullies and the very, very rich to face many choices, not least the one presented by biology: children. <p> As the different generations balance the challenges life throws at them, a tender and unexpected love story emerges alongside a journey to maturity in this bold and beautiful novel.
