From Booklist
Because Georgianna "Georgi" Thomasina Beverly looks much younger than she really is, people constantly think she is a fresh chit just out of the schoolroom. Therefore, it is no surprise to Georgi that Philip Hartford, Lord Everhart, would think the same thing, especially because the first time they meet, Georgi is scrambling around a statue in the churchyard like some hoydenish girl. Philip, who is new to the area after inheriting a rundown estate from a distant reclusive relative, soon discovers he needs Georgi's help when Georgi's matchmaking aunt begins pushing her daughter, the beautiful Cassandra, in his direction. Both Georgi and Philip enjoy their new friendship, but neither one can deny that the idea of a romance between them isn't tempting. Savery adds delightfully amusing, wonderfully quirky secondary characters, including a wealthy widow in the market for a biddable husband, into the mix of her latest sparkling Regency.
