Lady Theresa despises London society. What's worse is that she has to attend the betrothal ball of the young man she expected to marry. To deflect all the pitiful glances from the other guests, she makes a play for the most striking gentleman there-who happens to be her Cousin Damian, who is everything she despises.Damian, Lord Clinton sees a desperate young lady with no social graces, and it solidifies his opinion that country folk are beneath him. But it so happens that he is the heir to that young lady's father's title and estate, and the time comes when he finds himself obliged to spend some time there. Thrown together, both Damian and Theresa discover each other's hidden depths. But are their differences too much to overcome to make a successful match?
