Sir Joshua Stiles wants nothing more than to fill the hole in his heart left by his wifeβs death, but it seems that women are more interested in his fortune than in himself. Cynical and ready to renounce all females, he is none too pleased when his sister invites her dear friend to visit for the Season. Having survived a joyless marriage, Genevieve Breckinridge has no romantic expectations. In coming to London, she hopes only to cure her daughterβs Gothic fantasies. But Sir Joshua seems always to be at hand, either to witness Genevieveβs most mortifying moments, or to make himself so agreeable that she wishes she had not given up romance. When her daughter develops a decided tendre for Sir Joshua, however, Genevieve suddenly realizes where her own heart lies, and must make a painful choice. For what loving mother couldβor wouldβplay rival to her own daughter? This clean Regency romance was generously donated to the Beehive Library Consortium by local author, Judith Hale Everett.
