It doesn’t help that she would rather discuss a scandalous novel rather than the weather or a gentleman’s new horse. Then there’s her unfortunate sense of humor which seems to shoot right over the heads of the men she does meet.Jacob Wilding, Baron Worthing, had not thought to marry in the near future.

Jacob’s father pushes him toward Lady Eleanor Chalcroft and loath to disappoint his sire, Jacob sets out to court her, only to discover that he is more interested in her wallflower friend, Juliette Aston.
