A romantic young lady and a dithering marquess - can they untangle the web of misunderstandings to find happiness? A traditional Regency romance, drawing room rather than bedroom. Connie's older sisters have managed to find husbands, but now it's her turn and she is not sure she wants to marry at all. Having only just escaped her late father's restrictive regime, she's reluctant to surrender her freedom to another man just yet. If only she could find one who would fall so adoringly in love that he would do anything for her. The Marquess of Carrbridge has been taken in by ambitious young ladies before, and he's not about to fall for any more trickery to ensnare him. Nor will he be pushed into marriage by his hectoring grandmother. From now on, he's determined to take charge of his future and do things his own way. But not every young lady is dazzled by his title, and sometimes the best of plans may go awry.
