About Angel

Lady Evangelina was lovely, the daughter of a marquis, and the reigning beauty of the London season. Of course she was deluged with marriage offers...but how could she ever be sure that her suiters were sincere? Determined to find a husband who would love her for herself, Angel decides to pose as her Uncle's poor relation on her Lake Country Holiday. Impetuous and never at a loss for a scheme, the irrepressible beauty soon found herself playing matchmaker as well, seeking mates for her bluestocking Cousin Catherine and shy Lady Elizabeth Markham. But Angel had no way of knowing that there was more than one disguised aristocrat in the neighborhood that summer-and what a very permanent effect he would have on her heart.
