A young woman is coming of age and of course her families concern is that she do well on the "marriage market". But the beauty of her older sister surpasses hers, and besides the young lady in question really doesn't have much interest in acting lady like. She sneaks out of the house by wearing mens clothes to see a male acquaintance of her youth--but of course his reaction is not quite what she expected. While she is on her incognito adventures she meets an experienced older gentleman who sets out to be her advisor--and along the way a love match is made. Enjoyable for a quick light read, and if you really love these kind of romances this one will fit the bill more than nicely. ( ) sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Arranging a season for an unruly young lady whose habit is to enter drawing rooms by sliding down banisters presents a challenge at best-especially since the hoydenish Mira has a sister of incomparable grace and beauty. Mira isn't at all daunted by the local society and its ridiculous marriage mart. Her heart belongs to Lord Charles, who has been the object of her dreams ever since she was a child. But alas, Charles has eyes only for her ever-perfect sister, Drusilla. Along the sidelines, the Marquess of Grantley enjoys Mira's jealous antics-although pushing her sister into the fountains has practically ruined her social cachet. It is up to him to restore her to respectability and make her an eligible bride once again. When he succeeds, however, the lovelorn marquess will begin to wish he had left well enough alone.
