Life According to Beatrice

By Anna Marie

What is a wallflower to do when she accepts a dance from an utterly handsome stranger only to discover that he is her sister's betrothed? Beatrice Oxley has been placed on a shelf. A social pariah of the ton, the late earl's daughter cannot marry without a dowry. Torn between family duty, the man she cares for, and her haunting childhood memories, Beatrice must come to terms with her past, and understand the decision her parents made that left her penniless. And is she prepared to watch Lord Worthing, her sister's betrothed, slip through her fingers and marry another? It would be simply wicked to attempt to make him fall in love with her. Yet, the thought was tempting and delicious. But time is running out, and Beatrice has a decision to make: To remain under her sister's rule and scrutiny, or listen to her heart for once. Unbeknown to all, Beatrice has a trick up her sleeve, too...Isaac Ramsbury, the first Marquis of Worthing, is pressured into marriage. To marry for money-the ill-mannered younger Oxley sister. Or love-Beatrice. With his wealth on the line, he must give up something. Is he, however, prepared to say goodbye to the woman who makes him feel like he is more than just his title? And will Beatrice finally let go of old ghosts and accept herself as she is?
