"I assume you do not mind improper behavior, giving you are a Brompton."

Lilacs symbolize confidence, which makes them a traditionally popular gift for graduates. There are many meanings that lilacs have that can best be classified by colour. White lilacs represent youthful innocence. Blue lilacs symbolize happiness and tranquillity. Lilac, the colour for which this flower is named, is a light purple that symbolizes a first love. 

Mary Brompton is not young anymore, although she behaves like she is. She is expected to court her best friend's brother, but she does not like him like people think she does. She wants to be free and fully a woman, not a fancy lady who needs the protection of a man.
Eli Byron is not the best man in London. He has a reputation of danger, drinks and many ladies. Hiding behind the greatness of his father, has become second nature to him. He has a family that has hope for him, but he does not share that feeling.
They are different on every level and they put that to the test - literally. But does becoming close to each mean discovering the truth they are both hiding?

Simon Siddell, Earl of Watford, had turned into a quiet man, who never indulged in conversations, and wasn't loved much by London due to his 'dark personality'.

The Beautiful Wallflower by elouisetanghe

"You truly are one special lady." Wallflowers symbolize a shy or excluded person at a dance or party, especially a girl without a partner. Victoria Blackburn lives a lonely and simple life. She is not like most ladies in London, and that is how she likes it. She does not want to be the centre of gossip, but a rumour about her and a lord she does not know well has been made up. Now her house at Lyne Avenue seems to be the place where everyone wants to be. Andrew Brompton is not liked by the ton, and when a rumour comes out, he does not bother about it. But he feels the need to protect the lady who is in the centre of attention, next to him. He discovers there is much more to her than he initially thought, and that mayhap all rumours are untrue. Will they be able to see through the superficial façade of rumours and brave the ton, or will they return to their quiet and uneventful life?
