The Groom List
The Groom List
In a Season filled with surprises, the irrepressible Worthingtons welcome thrilling new love matches into their lively extended family . . .
Intelligent. Kind. Must like children. Passable looks. A man of means. Must make us laugh . . . For Lady Alice Carpenter, these are some of the "musts" on the checklist for eligible bachelors compiled with her sisters as they husband-hunt among the ton. Yet when she encounters a striking nobleman on her morning ride in Hyde Park, Alice soon tallies another list of first impressions . . . Shallow. Flirtatious. Without seriousness of purpose. Impossible to avoid . . .
Gifford, the Marquis of St. Albans, must wed in order to wrest his estate from his controlling father. How hard could it be to snag a suitable match? Waltzing with lovely Lady Alice at the Season's whirl of balls and soirees however, defies Giff's expectations: his dance moves are smooth but their small talk is excruciating--he offers up gossip sheet tidbits while she interrogates him on his charitable works--or lack thereof! Charming. Amusing. Irresistible . . . A disastrous idea?
Alice is willing to entertain the possibility that there is more to the man than meets the eye--though what meets the eye is quite attractive. But when Giff's true character is tested, she realizes it takes more than a list to reveal the heart of a worthy and honorable gentleman . . .
