The Bridal Season
Music hall performer Letty Potts is the original sow's ear who turns  herself into a silk purse. Burned out of her rooming house by her unscrupulous  ex-boyfriend Nick Sparkle, Letty needs to get out of London--and fast.  Opportunity presents itself in the form of a train ticket to Little Bidewell  discarded by Lady Agatha Whyte, society wedding planner. Upon her arrival, Letty  is mistaken for Lady Agatha by the Bigglesworth family who have hired her to  make their daughter's wedding the event of the decade. Never one to let good  fortune slip by her, Letty utilizes her acting talent to pass as a duke's  daughter forced to earn a living as a wedding coordinator. Thoroughly enmeshed  in prewedding preparations, Letty finds herself unable to hurt the Bigglesworths  who have welcomed her--as Lady Agatha--so graciously and who need her so much.  However, when it turns out that the Bigglesworths' neighbor, the oh-so-handsome,  unquestionably honorable, and all too eligible Sir Elliot March, is also the  local magistrate, Letty figures it's time to get out of Dodge, uh, Little  Bidewell. The larcenous Letty is utterly astonished by her overwhelming  attraction to the serious--and seriously sexy--Elliot. He, too, seems completely  astounded by Letty's natural sensuality, which leaves Elliot prone to behave in  a most ungentlemanly manner. To further complicate matters, who should appear in  Little Bidewell but the notorious Nick Sparkle, who believes Letty's working a  con and wants in on the take. When the jig is up and Letty must face the music,  it is left to Elliot to investigate and possibly prosecute the woman he has  fallen in love with and wants to marry. Will two such different people, from  such disparate places in society, be able to close the gap that exists  everywhere but in their hearts?
