  • Arranging
  • a
  • season
  • for
  • an
  • unruly
  • young
  • lady
  • whose
  • habit
  • was
  • to
  • enter
  • drawing
  • rooms
  • by
  • sliding
  • down
  • banisters
  • presented
  • a
  • challenge
  • at
  • best
  • -
  • especially
  • since
  • the
  • hoydenish
  • Mira
  • had
  • a
  • sister
  • of
  • incomparable
  • grace
  • and
  • beauty.Mira
  • wasn't
  • daunted
  • at
  • all
  • by
  • the
  • local
  • society
  • and
  • its
  • ridiculous
  • marriage
  • mart.
  • Her
  • heart
  • belonged
  • to
  • Lord
  • Charles,
  • who
  • had
  • been
  • the
  • object
  • of
  • her
  • dreams
  • ever
  • since
  • she
  • was
  • a
  • child.
  • Alas,
  • Charles
  • had
  • eyes
  • only
  • for
  • her
  • ever-perfect
  • sister,
  • Drusilla.Along
  • the
  • sidelines,
  • the
  • Marquess
  • of
  • Grantley
  • was
  • enjoying
  • Mira's
  • jealous
  • antics
  • -
  • although
  • pushing
  • her
  • sister
  • into
  • the
  • fountains
  • had
  • practically
  • ruined
  • her
  • social
  • cachet.
  • It
  • was
  • up
  • to
  • him
  • to
  • restore
  • her
  • to
  • respectability
  • and
  • make
  • her
  • an
  • eligible
  • bride
  • once
  • again.
  • Yet
  • when
  • he
  • succeeded,
  • the
  • lovelorn
  • Marquess
  • began
  • to
  • wish
  • he
  • had
  • left
  • well
  • enough alone.
