K Patrick Ramsey, Earl Drakely, has several wonderful qualities and some major faults that need a lot work. One is he is wallowing in guilt regarding his first wife. The second is he is not good at teasing and joking around. The third is that he is highly presumptuous. His friend Marcus, Earl Sinclair tries to help, but it's his accidental wife who guides him through into becoming a better person. When Drake meets Ms. Juliet Hughes, he views her as competent, but he doesn't think much of how she looks. He hears his children prose on about Juliet's virtues and presumes Juliet is the lovely, meek and submissive creature lounging on a sofa. He immediately meets with her parents and offers for their daughter Juliet. The real Juliet overhears the conversation and is brushed off when she attempts to tell him he has confused her with her beautiful sister Henrietta - who I am hoping climbs out of shell to find her own Prince Charming. The real Juliet, not realizing the variety of ways marriage ceremonies can be conducted, goes through with it and finds herself married to Lord Presumptuous. They fight and hiss and spit at each other and their motives like a couple of alley cats before they acknowledge their feelings and get down to the serious business of marriage. Another delightful Rose Gordon read.
