Short description

In an attempt to save her younger brother, Lady Leslie flees to London and into the arms of the Duke of Kenelm.

Extended description

After losing their parents in an accident, older sister Leslie Endale, her two younger sisters, and her brother Daryl, the nine-year-old heir to the Endale estate, run away from their wicked cousin, March Wardell, who is trying to do away with the young heir so that he may capture the earldom for himself. Leslie leads the young orphans to the ruined mansion of the Duke of Kenelm, Drogo Trevelyan, who has not entered the much-hated premises since his father died. Drogo discovers the Endale children in his home seeking refuge until they can reach their Great-aunt in London. Much to his chagrin, Drogo becomes entangled with the children's plight and more specifically with one certain Lady Leslie.

Review by: John Whelan on Oct. 22, 2012 :
In Regency times a Duke would be very unlikely to be summoned to a lawyer's office,the lawyer would attend the Duke at the Duke's convenience.

The book unfortunately seems to have a number of historical inaccuracies especially to do with social conventions at the time which irritate and get in the way of the tale.

Review by: anjay on Feb. 02, 2012 :
A good read but there were some missing words and spelling errors. Not quite as good as The Runaway Debutante, but still a good Regency that was a quick read.
