The forgetful lady

First she lost her memory … now she’s misplaced her heart.

London society considers Lady Elizabeth Fairchild a tease and a flirt. And it is true that during her come-out she acted the part in her desperation to please her difficult mother.

Then, after a nasty fall and a loss of memory, Beth resolves to be her caring and honest self. But instead of reclaiming her reputation, she finds it growing dangerously worse. A story is spreading that she broke the heart of a close friend of the Marquis of Meridan, the man she truly – but secretly – adores.

Now her every action is misinterpreted and scandal nips at her heels. If only she could remember what happened between her and the young man who supposedly fled broken-hearted to his untimely death. If only she could see passion, instead of anger, in the eyes of the man she loves.

Will her memory never return? And will the marquis ever see her as she truly is?
