The Invitation: An Art and Discipline Short Story (Art and Discipline Book 1.5)

by Regina Kammer

Overview

In Victorian London, a lovelorn fifty-three-year-old widow discovers she is the muse for a young artist.

Widowed, middle-class, and past her prime, Leonora Aldbury is unwelcome amongst Victorian England's upper crust and denied the opportunities Society can bring — including romantic attachments. She aches for sensual fulfillment, fantasizing about a young artist who sketches in London's National Gallery. During a daring encounter, the artist offers Leonora an intriguing invitation. Will she risk respectability for a chance at love?

"The Invitation" is an older woman / younger man, age gap romance short story of 3,946 words set in Regina Kammer's Victorian Art & Discipline universe. The characters in "The Invitation", Leonora Aldbury and the artist Jasper Dawson, will be integrated into future Art & Discipline books.

Editorial Reviews

"I found myself tearing up at a historical story of widow and a young artist--perhaps I get emotional when characters aching for exploration get their needs met." -- Review of "The Invitation" in BWE of the Year, Volume 4.
