Lord Stanhope's Proposal

By Jessica Benson

Book Overview

A true gentleman and handsome, too, Lord Stanhope was the toast of the ton. But at the height of the Season, he was rusticating to Sussex. Calista Ashton, an elderly dried up spinster, had become the subject of a wager placed by his own foppish cousin. Now it was up to Stanhope to rescue the innocent Calista. The vicar's sister, at four and twenty, didn't care a fig for fashion - or amour. Instead, Calista Ashton loved racing fine steeds, reading scandalous books, and embracing an independent life. Now a group of visiting London bachelors has arrived at a neighboring estate. And much to Calista's dismay, she soon finds herself being courted by not one, but two noblemen Unused to the ton's flirtations, her head was turned by the dashing Lord Stanhope who kissed divinely. But what was happening amid the lush country meadows- sweet seduction...or true love?
