Alexa Rathbourne is all the things men aren't looking for in a wife: plump, intellectual, fiercely independent... And she knows it. The eldest child of the Earl of Plymouth, Alexa muddles through her fifth miserable season in London, certain that she is doomed to a life of spinsterhood. But, in the blink of an eye, Alexa finds herself with not only one, but two suitors. Pursued by a sweet, comforting childhood friend and a man who sets her ablaze in a way she hadn't thought possible, Alexa must face her own securities if she is to be happy. Life was certainly much simpler when she was unwanted.
