All the ladies paraded for the Season are shopping for husbands. The better the title, the better the marriage. All except for one Lady Brianna, the daughter of an Earl. She's watched all of her mother's duties and wishes for a more simple life when she is married. Her dream is to live in the country, live a simple life and have the freedom of time to paint and follow any pursuits she desires. As a result, Lady Brianna refuses to marry a man with a title.When at a party and being pursued, Lady Brianna asks an unknown gentleman to rescue her, which he does by drawing her deeper in the darkness of the garden and then kissing her! Mr. Richard makes Lady Brianna almost swoon with her first amorous kiss and she is grateful to him. Plus, he's very good-looking and doesn't have a title.There is just one problem, Mr. Richard just happens to actually have a title. He's a Marquis. He realizes he must hide this from Lady Brianna if he's going to see her. This is difficult since he's considered the catch of the Season and invited to all the parties.The comedy of errors, the well-drawn characters of family, friends, servants and an evil Lord, and the story entertains as well as made me laugh a few times. A very enjoyable, light read. :)
