Known as a ridiculous flirt, Lady Alice can't help but be caught in a scandalous position. With her poor eyesight, poor Mrs. Lockway can't help but blame Arabella. Being accused of scandal with a man she's never met- or heard of- Arabella has but one choice. Marry him to save her reputation. ɤɤɤɤ Note: I have never been to England and quite frankly, I'm making up names and titles.
