A Regency novella...
A vicar's orphaned daughter, Elizabeth Townsend is grateful to her uncle, the Earl of Dewberry, for taking her in. When she is thrown from her horse while on a country ride, a dashing, raven-haired soldier, just home from the war, gallantly rescues her as a knight-of-old.
At twenty-two with no dowry, Elizabeth knows she will never marry into the aristocracy, but the soldier, Darian, would be a good match. Harboring fantastical thoughts, she hopes to see him at the Duke's provincial ball the following week.
See him she does, for Darian is the Marquess of Bingington, heir to the duke -- and totally out of her league. Totally.
