Pleasure Is On Her Dance CardDetermined
to find a husband, Miss Eleanor "Nell" Bowman attends a ball put on by
the Duchess of Greycliffe, fondly referred to as the Duchess of Love.
But she roundly dismisses the suitors the matchmaking hostess has
invited on her behalf. For it’s the duchess’s dashing son Ned, Lord
Edward, who long ago captured Nell’s heart—and roused her desire. All it
takes is a pair of conveniently misplaced silky red bloomers to set the
handsome widower’s gaze on this unusual girl who is clearly more than
meets the eye...After more than a year of mourning, Ned longs to
finally start anew. At first glance, the birthday ball his mother has
thrown in his honor is decidedly lacking in suitable mistresses. But he
senses something unexpectedly alluring beneath the veil of Nell’s plain
exterior— something she’s anxious to reveal, and the lonely Lord is
incapable of denying...
