A passably entertaining if mildly derivative and predictable read, this story will entertain readers who are looking for a bit of escape.  Chelsea is an engaging although slightly confused character: on one hand her innocence and naiveté are appropriate to both her situation and the time, on the other her instant `comfort' with a more flirtatious, bordering on entendre comments to the men courting her didn't feel as natural as it should have.The situations are similar in many romances: young debutante makes a splash coming out, and the suitors are rushing: yet the one she wants is the one confirmed bachelor, without need or interest in marriage.  Add in the despicable aunt, and a godmother who is close to fairy-like in behaviour and the whole story has several sub-plots that seem to tie together neatly, if conveniently.This story would take about 2 hours to read, a quiet afternoon diversion: the titled story is only about 60% of the page count, with `samples of other stories within the remaining pages.  There are no surprises here, but if you are in the mood for a non-demanding story to pass the time, this will suit.I received an eBook from the author for purpose of honest review for the Jeep Diva. I was not compensated for this review: all conclusions are my own responsibility.
