SHE’S YOUNG AND INNOCENT
Miss Eliza Foxburn is genuinely alarmed. Her widowere father, Sir Richard, is courting a young lady whose family is in trade! Worse, the chit is only nineteen–but one year older than Eliza. The tendre is making her papa look like an old fool…at least to Eliza. Surely she must make him see his infatuation is a mistake. And what better way than to encourage an impossibly older man to come courting her?
HE’S OLDER…AND NOT INNOCENT AT ALL
General Ashford Huntley, a dashing officer of thirty-eight, is hardly over the hill. Back in London after a long campaign, he is making female hearts flutter. Yet he is surprised when the lively Eliza Foxburn asks him to come calling. When she steals a kiss, he’s pleased. But when he learns she is only playing a foolish game, the wily soldier plans a new battle: to outfox Miss Foxburn and teach her a lesson…in love.
