In the first novel of Maya Rodale's stunning new series, an American
heiress must learn to navigate London society and an infuriatingly
irresistible rake . . .
Lord Darcy is the quintessential Englishman: wealthy, titled, impossibly
proper, and horrified that a pack of Americans has inherited one of
England's most respected dukedoms. But his manners, his infamous
self-restraint, and his better judgment fly out the window when he finds
himself with the maddening American girl next door.
Lady Bridget Cavendish has grand--but thwarted--plans to become a
Perfect Lady and take the haute ton by storm. In her diary, Bridget
records her disastrous attempts to assimilate into London high society,
her adoration of the handsome rogue next door, her disdain for the
Dreadful Lord Darcy, and some truly scandalous secrets that could ruin
them all.
It was loathing at first sight for Lady Bridget and Lord Darcy. But
their paths keep crossing . . . and somehow involve kissing. When Lady
Bridget's diary goes missing, both Darcy and Bridget must decide what
matters most of all--a sterling reputation or a perfectly imperfect
love.
