This is the first book of Callie Hutton’s that I have read and it will not be my last!  I loved it, the book and her writing.  Ms Hutton makes you feel and see the year 1814.  Drake, Duke of Manchester is looking for a wife.  He wants a biddable wife, sophisticated and “worthy of being his Duchess”.  Miss Penelope Clayton is kind and a genuinely likable lady. However, she is extremely clumsy and never says the right thing in Society. What she is good at is being a serious botanist.  She has no interest in marriage, yet her guardian insist upon  a season for her. The Duke’s family is hosting Penelope.  As Drake sees her more and more, he knows she is not what he wants for his duchess.  Then why does his head tell him something different that his heart?  Which will win, his head or heart?  I found this book to be well written and humorous.  Loved the problems Penelope found herself in.  I’m off to look for another book by Callie Hutton.  This is such a enjoyable read, I would recommend it strongly.
