The Dreadful Debutante Lib/E (Royal Ambition Series Lib/E)

M C Beaton

Product Description Arranging a season for an unruly young lady whose habit is to enter drawing rooms by sliding down banisters presents a challenge at best--especially since the hoydenish Mira has a sister of incomparable grace and beauty. Mira isn't at all daunted by the local society and its ridiculous marriage mart. Her heart belongs to Lord Charles, who has been the object of her dreams ever since she was a child. But alas, Charles has eyes only for her ever-perfect sister, Drusilla. Along the sidelines, the Marquess of Grantley enjoys Mira's jealous antics--although pushing her sister into the fountains has practically ruined her social cachet. It is up to him to restore her to respectability and make her an eligible bride once again. When he succeeds, however, the lovelorn marquess will begin to wish he had left well enough alone. Review [A] swift-moving, engaging romp.-- "Library Journal"
