Miss Delafield Disposes — Kathleen Beck

Valentine's Day -- a time when the first spring flowers bloom in the chill spring air, the song birds choose their mates, and ladies and gentlemen discover special moments of love...

Intrigued by rumors of a curse that compels Miss Gowland Delafield to marry only for love, Lord Burton is eager to meet her. Stunned by the maiden's beauty, his lordship finds his own heart in danger. Imagine a sophisticate like Burton in love with a chit who seems more inclined toward her drawing master. But Burton soon learns that when curses and valentines are involved, things are not what they appear.
