Let the games begin...
Every fortune-hunting female in London is after the newly titled Earl of Kendall, but heβs intent on finding a wife whose heart is true. So, while drunkenly jesting with his friends in a pub one night, he has an ideaβwhat if the ladies of thetondidnβt know he was a wealthy earl? All he has to do is pose as a servant at his friendβs summer country house party and make sure the guest list is full of beautiful, eligible debutantes. What could possibly go wrong?
May the best footman win.
Miss Frances Wharton is far more interested in fighting for the rights of the poor than in marriage, but her mother insists she attend a summer house partyβand find herself a husband. Frances would rather wed a goat than the pompous man her mother has in mind, so in order to dissuade the would-be suitor, she vows to behave like a shrew. The only person she can be herself with is the kind, handsome footman she runs into at every turn. Their connection is undeniable, and the divide between them is no match for the passion they feel. But what will happen when Frances learns that the footman she adores is actually the earl she despises? In a game where everything is false, can they convince each other that their love is true?
