AMERICAN WIDOW ELEANOR SCARBOROUGH IS ABOUT TO SET ALL OF
REGENCY LONDON ON ITS EAR...
Eleanor has always been looked on askance as "the bossy
American" by London society, the very antithesis of British
virtue and propriety. Now, at the death of her husband, she
has been appointed trustee to his estate, and the proverbial
fur is flying. Infuriated, her mother-in-law sends Lord
Anthony Neale to put and end to Eleanor's nefarious
gold-digging ways.
Anthony and Eleanor clash immediately. He thinks she's a
siren who uses beauty to entrap men. She thinks he's a
haughty, cold English snob. Despite their initial
misgivings, they are increasingly drawn to each other. But
someone is threatening Eleanor, and as the break-ins and
other malicious activities begin to pile up... it's Anthony
who tops the list of probable suspects!
