But it’s the eldest sister, Caroline, who is giving him real trouble. Because she’s the one he wants for his own. Caroline Twinning’s beauty is matched only by her intelligence and shrewdness. She’s determined to see her sisters—and herself—well married before the season is through. And no one is more inappropriate for her than the new duke. After all, the whole of London knows he’s not the marrying kind. So why is he the only one who interests her?
