| Publisher Description: Ever pragmatic, Lady Caroline Ponsby has given up hope she'll ever receive a proposal of marriage from Christopher Perry, the wealthy man she's adored for almost two years. She is determined to be an ex-spinster by Christmas. To that end, she has invited a prospective suitor to spend Christmas with her family. She knows very well that Lord Brockton would love to get his hands on her dowry, and she'd love to be a married woman with a home and family of her own.The very idea of his Lady Caroline throwing herself away on the likes of the vile Lord Brockton rankles Christopher Perry. A pity he cannot offer for her himself, but a duke's daughter is too far above his touch, given his family's humble origins. Nevertheless, Christopher attends the Duke of Aldridge's Christmas house party with the intention of thwarting Lady Caroline's grave misalliance with Brockton. If only he's not too late . . . |
