Irene Saunders: The Dowager's Dilemma

Irene Saunders wrote 13 books for Signet's Regency Romance line, 9 of which Allan Kass illustrated. The Dowager's Dilemma was published in May 1991 and is the story of Sarah Wyndham, whose late husband's estate is now owned by the obnoxious Jethro Newsome.

Allan Kass illustrates a flirty cover for this book. It's a curious one where the hero doesn't look like a Kass hero and is a bit stockier than his normal figures. The heroine is pretty in purple and her orange shawl matches the rest of this room, which is full of detail.
