I felt instant empathy with Isobel -- a little too old, a little too chubby, a little too clumsy.  For ten years, she has endured the snickers and snide remarks of the ladies and gentlemen of the ton, all due to a very public fall. Her humiliation has become legend, thanks to society's cruel gossip.  She will forever be Dizzy Izzy, a name given her by Miles Shepherd, Baron of Revere. She has shut herself away, venturing into society only when it is absolutely impossible to avoid doing so. And now, she must brave the shark-infested waters once again in order to do her duty to her sister, Cat, who has high hopes for a successful match.Lord Revere fits the bill nicely; he's handsome, wealthy, and charming.  And fortunately for Cat, he has decided that it's time for him to take a wife.  He doesn't require her affection; he does expect companionship and amiability. And he finds it in Cat. Or does he?Cat makes it her mission to promote a friendship between her sister and her almost-betrothed.Can Miles overcome his pride and admit his growing affection for Isobel?  Can Isobel move beyond her prejudice against her tormentor and see the side of Miles that he has carefully kept hidden?Is the Wrong Woman the Right Woman for him?I enjoyed this story.  I would have liked it to continue a little longer, although the author left the reader in a good place.  Maybe a sequel is a consideration?  I hope so.
