From Back Cover: Vivacious Lillian Aulderbury couldn't have been more delighted! Her very first London season had presented her with a perfect opportunityy to foil Sir Anthony Meade, the scheming blackguard who'd trifled with her affections. For what better way to catch one scoundrel than to enlist the aid of another- namely, her society escort, the rakish Earl of Raeburn? But Lilly soon discovered that resisting the handsome and worldy earl was proving a far more difficult - and irresistable challenge.
When he reluctantly agreed to squire the alluring Miss Aulderbury about London, Raeburn never expected to be inveigled into such a reckless scheme...or to find the innocent country lass as delectable as she was determined. There was no help for it - he would have to keep a watchful eye on the pretty, grey-eyed vixen and see that she came to no harm. But who would protect him from LIlly's refreshingly spirited charms- or from his own suddenly impassioned heart?
Enjoyed this book! The heroine is very likeable, as is the hero. My favorite, though, is Uncle Wizzy, who doesn't appear until approximately 2/3 way through the book and seems to sum up the situation before anyone else, including the hero/heroine. A good read, but could be cheesy in parts, but not overly so.
