A Lady's Guide to Fortune-Hunting
"I have four sisters that depend on me, and the professions open to a woman such as I - governess, seamstress perhaps - will not keep even half of them fed and clothed. What else am I to do but to seek a rich husband?"
An upmarket bon-bon of a book--a whip-smart debut that follows the fortunes of an entirely unconventional heroine who throws herself into the London Season to find a wealthy husband and save her family. But the last thing she expects is to find love... Kitty Talbot needs a fortune. Or rather, she needs a husband who has a fortune. Jilted by her fianc? three months before their wedding, with no money to pay off her father's gambling debts, she and her four sisters face certain ruin. But Kitty has never been one to back down from a challenge, so she leaves the countryside and heads toward the most dangerous battleground in all of England: The London season. Kitty is neither accomplished, nor all that genteel, but she is utterly single-minded; imbued with her father's gambling spirit, Kitty knows that risk is just part of the game. The only thing she doesn't anticipate is Lord Radcliffe. The worldly Radcliffe sees Kitty for the mercenary fortune-hunter that she really is, and is determined to scotch her plans at all costs... An irresistible mano-a-mano between Kitty and Lord Radcliffe will turn into the romance of the year, one whose brilliant repartee and enticing wit make A Lady's Guide to Fortune-Hunting a pure delight.
