Annabel Winslow is in a pickle. Having newly arrived in London for her first season and being in possession of a voluptuous figure, is being openly courted the the Earl of Newbury, who is at least 75 and a nasty brute to boot. Annabel does not want to marry him, of course, but feels that she has no choice since her father has recently died and left the whole family, including Annabel's mother her 7 siblings, almost destitute.
Then, while attending a party in the countryside, Annabel met Sebastian Grey, the Earl of Newbury's nephew. And suddenly she found herself not only courted by the lecherous uncle, but also the charming young nephew. Should she follow her heart so that she can be with the one she loves, or should she marry the loathsome earl just so she can put food on the table for her family and make sure that her brothers get to stay in school?

Loved this one!!! I want a book about Louisa next. For more of their grandmother if nothing else.
I am so happy I read this book. I read the first book in the series years ago but didn't find out this was a series until recently. When I read the second book, while I truly liked Harry and Olivia, I kept wishing Sebastian would get his own book because I was in love with this character. Imagine my surprise and pleasure when the third book in the series turned out to be Sebastian's story. This is definitely my favorite book of the series.
