Ada Leverson was a British writer, who is well-known for her work as a novelist. She began writing during the 1890s and has contributed many novels that were equally compared with great writers at her time.
Love's Shadow is part of The Bloomsbury Group -- a new library of books from the early twentieth-century. It is the first novel written by Ada Leverson in which Edith and Bruce Ottley live in a very small white flat in Knightsbridge. Even though they are considered to be one of the respectable couples in Edwardian London, Edith is beginning to feel a little bored with ghastly Bruce Ottley, who is pompous and vain.
But things started to change for Edith as excitement comes in the form of the impressive and glamorous Hyacinth Verney, who is in love with the elusive and showy Cedric Reeve. He, in his turn, is fascinated and infatuated with an enigmatic widow some ten years older than him, Mrs. Raymond, who contempt his attentions and insists him to marry Hyacinth. But, Hyacinth is loved by her guardian Lord Cannon, who is unhappily married to the redoubtable and self deluding Lady Cannon.
In the meanwhile, Lord Selsey -- uncle of Cedric, gets attracted by Mrs. Raymond and marries her. On hearing this, Cedric changes his mind and marries Hyacinth, but still has a secret feel and love over Mrs. Raymond. In the meanwhile, Bruce, who is furious at Hyacinth's marriage, is doubted by Edith, thinking that he has love over Hyacinth. Soon, things get messed up in everyone’s life for a meantime and finally end in a desired manner.
