Entertaining the Earl (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | Daphne Quinn | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

She has a fortune but no title. Or beauty.

A plain-faced blue stockinged spinster, Miss Susannah Lyttleton would spend every waking minute reading if she could, much to her parents' despair. So when her father announces that the Earl of Bourne will be spending the Season with them, Susannah is not excited about the prospect.

She imagines he'll be an old man with a receding hairline who hasn't got a clue how to behave now that he's unexpectedly inherited a grand title. So when the earl in question, Colin, is five-and-twenty and devastatingly handsome, she is rather taken aback.

One night in Vauxhall Gardens, he asks Susannah a favor: to pretend to have an understanding with him, in order to ward off the prowling mamas and their marriage-minded daughters.

Will the ton believe that the handsome Earl of Bourne has fallen in love with the bookish Miss Lyttleton? And when the earl realizes the pretense is becoming reality for him, will she believe him?
