Love's Renegade — Rachel Cosgrove Payes

Lena Lassiter's two older sisters were marrying lords. And just what were Lena's accomplishments in comparison? She had beautiful penmanship and had acquired a position to Lady Beekman. It was not quite what her sisters had, to be sure, but it did afford Lena certain possibilities. For instance it gave her an entree to eligible, wealthy young men who would make good husbands. Unfortunately, Lena acquired her would-be husband all too quickly. It was Lady Beekman's harebrained plan to protect her godson from scheming females by passing off Lena as his fiancee. Never in her wildest dreams did Lena expect to find herself engaged to a man she'd never met--while falling in love with another young man who was neither wealthy nor suited to be a good husband!
