β¦ Synopsis
Lissa Hazlett lives life in the shadows. The beautiful, illegitimate daughter of Viscount Partington earns her living as an overworked governess while her vain and spoiled half sister, Araminta, enjoys Londonβs social whirl as its most feted debutante.
When Lissaβs rare talent as a portraitist brings her unexpectedly into the bosom of society β and into the midst of a scandal involving Araminta and suspected English traitor Lord Debenham β she finds an unlikely ally: charming and besotted Ralph Tunley, Lord Debenhamβs underpaid, enterprising secretary. Ralph canβt afford to leave the employ of the villainous viscount much less keep a wife but he can help Lissa navigate a perilous web of lies and to ensure everyone gets their just desserts. With a little help from unexpected quarters there may even be a surprise Happy-Ever-After for the star-crossed lovers.
