A Midsummer's Delight — Alicia Rasley

A DELIGHTFUL MISS
Charity Calder had been only too happy to return to her country village after her first season in London, for she knew her expertise would be needed to help plan the midsummer festival. Of course, she missed the excitement and gaiety of the ton...until she discovered the identity of her new neighbor - the celebrated artist, Tristan Hale. Charity could not help but be drawn to his romantic Byronic looks and exotic foreign manner, for despite her most practical appearance she had alwasy dreamed of being swept off her feet by a handsome gentleman. Now if only she could convince the enigmatic lord of her true desires...

In fact, all in all, Miss Calder was a most fetching piece, but did he dare offer his love to a lady who seemed to have little time for frivolous affairs of the heart?
