Lillian Bowman is a nouveau-riche American who has come to England to catch a title and ended up as one of a quartest of wallflowers. She is a sharp-tongued, cynical woman with a biting humor, but she is also fiercely loyal, especially to the "Wallflowers." Marcus Marsden, the Earl of Westcliff, host to a house party where the first Wallflower found her husband (Secrets Of A Summer Night), finds Lillian's hellion ways intolerable. Now they are thrown together again at another house party, where Marcus hopes to do business with Lillian's father. This book shows how these two finally get together in spite of Marcus finding Lillian and Daisy playing rounders (an early form of baseball) in their pantalettes.
