FOUND- Love, Lies, and Spies by Cindy Anstey

Hi!
I read this book within the last five years, and it has a white cover with red writing for the title and black writing for the author’s name. I think there is the silhouette of a carriage, shown in black.

The setting is 18/19th century England.
Written within the last 20 years.
The writing style is very similar to that of Jane Austen.

The main character is an independent teenage girl who studies beetles.
She goes to live with her Aunt and cousin, who live in a large house.

Near the beginning, the girl goes out in a horse and cart, and ends up getting thrown and hanging off the side of a cliff, holding onto a tree I think.
She is rescued by two gentlemen who help pull her up.
One of the gentlemen ends up being a spy for the British government.

There is a ball.
The girl’s name might be Elizabeth?
She ends up falling in love with one of the gentlemen who rescued her.

Sorry that’s really all I can remember.

It is a pretty funny book though.

Thanks for any help!
