description: A Major Mismatch

She has never heard anything as ridiculous as the match pro-posed by her well-meaning sire. And even though three seasons have passed with no offer of marriage, Lady Vanessa keeps up hope....
  
  The match in question, Major Charles Tyrone, is quite in agreement with Lady Vanessa. He would sooner return to battle than marry this shrew But when dire straits throw the two together, laying bare Vanessa's true mettle, Charles yearns to test the waters. And there's nothing like a sound kiss to change a woman's mind....
