Just how was a confirmed rake to woo a young heiress who’s always been told she’s plain and dumpling like?
Lord Randall, Horatio, known to his friends as Race, saw the inner beauty of Clarissa Studley the moment she’d supported her illegitimate sister at a ball years ago.
Clarissa’s strong suppressed feelings are mistaken for insipidness. Race is never confused.
Clarissa’s father had been a thorough going rake and cad. He’d married Clarissa’s mother for her fortune and then left her to wither away on his estate in Hampshire while he cut a swathe through London society. No rakes could not be trusted! Ever!
This story of a rake a-wooing, and the complicated thoughts of his beloved is absolutely a delight.
Of course things get tangled up and others add to that entanglement. There’s the wounded war hero making tentative overtures towards Clarissa. So charming! Race’s blood boils!
A story of hidden strength, with of course a fairytale ending.
