The way society tells the story, Lady Jane Welsham was humiliated when Sir Nigel Boscastle left her standing at the altar. But Jane knows the truth -- she couldn't imagine a life with Nigel and she's relieved the wedding is called off.

Unfortunately, Nigel's cousin, Grayson Boscastle, the Marquess of Sedgecroft, picks the ruined wedding as one of the first times in his life to start being respectable. To salvage Jane's pride and restore his family name, Grayson escorts her around London. All the while, he and other family members are looking for Nigel to make him come back and do right by Jane. Which is the last thing on Jane's mind. She helped Nigel sabotage the wedding and doesn't want him found. Especially not when she's starting to see what was missing in the relationship with Nigel -- with none other than his cousin, Grayson!

Ms. Hunter has the gift of creating truly likeable characters, and Jane and Grayson certainly fit that category. I really liked Jane, who had the guts to challenge convention in a creative way. This book is primed with witty dialogue and good old-fashioned sexual tension.
