Rules for a Lady — Katherine Greyle

A lady does not attempt to come out in London society disguised as her deceased half-sister. A lady does not become enamored of her guardian; even though his masterful kisses and whispered words of affection tempt her beyond all endurance. A lady may not climb barefoot from her bedroom on a rose trellis, nor engage in fisticuffs with riff-raff in order to rescue street urchins. No matter how impossible the odds, a lady always gives her hand and her heart--though not necessarily in that order--to the one man who sees her as she truly is and loves her despite her flagrant disobedience of every one of the rules for a lady.
