Tilly's Job To Be Baron.

The daughter of a Baron's illegitimate child, Millicent Robertson lived in the shadows of the 18th century, scrubbed raw from years of service as a housemaid. Her exile ended abruptly upon the Baron's death.

The Baroness, desperate to protect the family estate from distant claimants, summoned Millicent with a grim ultimatum: don the breeches of a nobleman and hold the title until her half-sister, Marianne, secured a wealthy marriage.
With no coin and fewer options, Millicent traded her mobcap for a tailored coat.

As the "Baron," she navigated the treacherous waters of the ton, parrying the inquiries of ambitious mamas who saw her as a prime catch. Between tightening her waistcoat and perfecting a masculine stride, she steered Marianne through ballrooms and botanical gardens.

Millicent became the ultimate chaperone, vetting suitors with a maid's eye for dirt and a brother's protective shadow, all while praying the seams of her deception-and her coat-would hold.
