Description
Jessamine Barry is tired of waiting patiently for a man to decide her future. So even though Lancelot Marfleet, second son of an aristocrat, is taking an interest in her during the London season, she refuses to consider him as a suitor. Instead, she's ready to take fashionable society by storm-- and finds a rakish young man all too willing to help her do it. When things go too far, will her disgrace keep Lance from reconsidering her as a wife?
