Lady Eliza Turner has no interest in finding herself a wealthy husband, she has her books, her best friend Charlotte, and plenty of opinions on what society expects from her. When her curiosity gets the better of her, and she ends up in a compromising position with the desirable Duke Harrington she must use all her wits and charm to survive the scandal she has created. Jasper Harrington doesn't enjoy attending social occasions especially when opinionated women think that it is acceptable to criticise him, but there is something about Eliza that he can't quite bear to part with. Are this odd couple going to find a happy ever after together or apart?

You'd think that finding out that your all-state football champion boyfriend has been cheating on you with your best friend, that you got rejected from the college of your dreams , and that you're actually not biologically your parents', all in one day, would be crazy; and you'd be totally right. But for Harper Dale, an over privileged 17 year old, it's just a typical Tuesday afternoon. When everything in her life falls apart within the span of five hours, she's lost...until her saving grace appears in the form of a black SUV and three boys she hardly knows. Soon, she's on the road to absolutely nowhere, to find out where she comes from and who she wants to be with four unlikely allies; her obnoxious sworn enemy, his slightly less obnoxious best friends, and an aging go go dancer that may or may not be a sign that she's completely lost her mind. All Harper has to do is get her answers and ignore the fact that she may or may not be feeling head over heels for the one person capable of actually hurting her. Easier said than done.

Beautiful, elegant, a superb dancer and an even better singer, she is the perfect lover for any man. Perfect, that is, except for her personality - the one thing you can't engineer.

When nineteen-year-old Vanessa Hunter falls to her death, she realizes her life as she knows it, is over.
