description: WOULD SHE MARRY FOR PRESTIGE...
  The beautiful and strong-willed Allison Munroe has long awaited her Season in London. Vowing to show her family, who believes her high spirits are signs of immaturity, that she can be just as demure as the next young debutante, Allison will let nothing ruin her coming out ball...including the arrival of her sister's brother-in-law, the infuriating Geoffrey Pentercast. Yet instead of behaving like the less-than-proper boy she remembers from her childhood, Geoffrey seems to have become a gentleman! But with the charming and distinguished Marquis courting her, how could she even be tempted to choose the rash--but very thrilling--Geoffrey?
  
  ...OR FOR LOVE?
  Geoffrey Pentercast thought he would never have to witness his own dear Allison displaying herself like a prize mare in front of a host of crotchety suitors--all possessing more wealth and class than he. It was no surprise to Geoffrey that Allison was indeed the catch of the season. But he was not about to let his lack in finances and social graces deter him from winning the only lady he'd ever loved...even when he learns he has a most formidable opponent. Determined to prove he can be as respectable and gallant as the Marquis DeGuis, a bitter rivalry ensues. Yet Geoffrey and the Marquis soon discover that their efforts to woo Allison are all in vain. For only true love will win this duel of hearts...
