A Very Plain Young Man

She's beautiful but practical. He's charismatic and disreputable. When duty conflicts with love, will their hearts win?

Somerset, England, 1808. Elfrida Hapgood keeps her eyes on the prize. Born to a penniless squire, she's determined to follow common sense and marry an upstanding and steadfast gentleman. So when her brother-in-law's handsomely rakish sibling attempts to woo her, she rigidly ignores the flutter in her chest.

Frederick Tierney enjoys a flippant and frivolous life. But when he needs to escape a vengeful former mistress, the lovely older sister to his sibling's bride strikes him as an apt solution. Yet despite his efforts, he's shocked to discover the oh-so-proper lady is impervious to his charms.

In spite of herself, Elfrida begins to like the well-dressed man-about-town until an unsavory encounter reignites her doubts. And when Frederick realizes he has truly fallen for the alluring woman, he struggles to prove there's more to him than his reputation.

Will this unlikely pair take a chance at forever?
