Extended description

Since childhood Sara has lived with the reality of being ugly. Something her awful family never ceased to remind her. After her sisters run off to Gretna Green, she's left with one choice-—go to London and take their place for a Season. It's up to her to marry well and save her family from financial ruin.

A distant aunt decides it’s in her best interest to sponsor Sara for the season and help her snag a husband by any means possible.

Nicholas Devons, Earl of Renwick, is a retired rake and consequently bored with life. He’s given up beautiful women and carnal pleasures. Desperation makes him decide to give his massive fortune away and marry the first country girl he sees.

Lucky for Sara she's that girl. Unlucky for Nicholas, he's to be her new tutor in the ways of the ton. Two waltzes, one masquerade, a violent carriage ride, and two duckless ponds later... and all that's left is a fun twist on one of the oldest stories ever told.

Review by: Annalea on Nov. 15, 2012 :
Hmmmm. This was a fun read, to a point. I enjoyed the "under-duckling makes good" theme, and the writing was decent. But, if you're looking for a truly "clean" romance, I would pass this one up. The actual sex happens off-page . . . but there's way more detail on everything leading up to it than I would feel comfortable letting my daughters read (or even myself . . . lol . . . and I'm an old married woman with a bunch of children).
