Lovely but penniless Harriet Metcalf is aghast when a noblemans will lnames her guardian of his snobbish twin daughters when they come out during the next London season. But is innocent Harriet wily enough for the intrigues of the ton or its two most eligible bachelors, the Marquess of Huntingdon and Lord Vere? Harriet sees them as suitors for the twins, while the gentlemen see only Harriets charms. Soon she is falling in love with one of the dashing rakes, but a cruel betrayal will be her ruin unless the Clarges Street servents can save a ladys honor when she loses her heart.

This was a light, fast read with a nice amount of humor. I read this book of the series first and didn't feel like I'd missed things by reading them out of order. Harriet is named godmother and guardian to 2 twins after their father dies. She thinks well of everyone, so doesn't realize that the twins resent her and are spreading malicious gossip. When they go to London for the season, the servants in the London house, band together to make for a happy ending.

Great book...you really get to see how Society ladies turn on each other. I liked Harriet's character best, although the chaperone has her moments too.
