The Protection of Love

The Protection of Love is #142 in the Camfield series and was published in June 1995. Meta Lindley becomes a spy on the orders of Queen Victoria! She and her brother rent out their home to a Russian Prince and Meta is to act as a governess to his sister. Soon both brother and sister fall in love and decisions need to be made!

The mid 1990's are the beginning of the era of photo covers. I believe that it was getting too expensive to contract out the art to artists and the ability of graphic design using computers had become cheaper to use to create cover art. On this cover, we see a goblet with roses inside along with a letter all in a Victorian style. We have no clue from the cover about the story at all.

BC.com has this photo for this title and it's so much prettier than the boring USA cover art!
