"I won't marry anyone else but Hugh, so sending me to London is a waste of both effort and money!"
But Beatrix's stern Yorkshire father ignores his rebellious daughter's declaration of undying love. He insists that she and her cousin Eleanor travel from York to London where the choice of suitable husbands is limitless for such a blonde blue-eyed beauty. Eleanor's success in London society is doubtful, as her dark good looks are unfashionable and she has no prospects.
Unexpectedly, Beatrix's Aunt Lucy, a Dowager Duchess, determines to make Eleanor the rage. But is her arrogant nephew, Justin, Marquis of Trouvaine, a leader of fashion in that dazzling city of Regency times, merely co-operating with his aunt's schemes or has he really met his match in Eleanor?
