1988 Rita Award for Best Novel
A RITA award winning Regency romance by Susan Carroll. . .
Aurelia Sinclair felt as though she had been waiting forever for the proposal of marriage from her childhood sweetheart, Justin. If Lord Spencer was less than ardent, well, what could a plump dowdy creature such as herself expect from such a handsome buck of the ton? No matter what she might long for, she had to be content with what Justin offered, friendship and a marriage of convenience.
Or so Aurelia thought until Everard Ramsey took matters into his hands. Rusticating in the country, the handsome London dandy was intrigued by Aurelia's humor and intelligence. His sympathy for Aurelia's plight led him to make an outrageous suggestion. If she would but place her trust in him, Everard vowed to transform her into next Season's belle. Though Aurelia was highly skeptical of his proposition, what did she have to lose? Nothing. . . only her heart.
