Reseña del libro "The Reluctant Debutante: A Regency Romance: Volume 2 (Light Division Romances) (en Inglés)"
A drunken encounter in a wayside tavern... "Perhaps I should be the one to start the conversation. I behaved badly last night, Miss Summers - and not for the first time with you." "That is so," Cordelia assented sedately. "Did I frighten you - that day at the tavern?" Cordelia thought about it. "Yes," she said. "I think I was more upset than I realised. I was also very angry." "You've a temper," he said with a laugh. "Of all the unlikely creatures to meet - a woman with blood in her veins instead of water. No, don't hit me - it's a compliment, believe me. But you're not a light skirt and I insulted you. I..." "You attacked me." Rockcliffe was silent for a moment. Then he said: "Yes, I did. I was foully drunk which is my only excuse. Last night I was - on edge, shall we say. I don't pride myself on gentlemanly behaviour, but after I left I was ashamed. I shouldn't have spoken to you that way. If you'd not been so self-possessed I could have caused an embarrassing scene. I'm sorry - you've never done anything to hurt me, I hardly know you. It was cruel and thoughtless - on both occasions. I apologise." When Cordelia Summers, daughter of a wealthy City merchant, reluctantly agrees to a London season it is purely to please her much loved father who is anxious to see her respectably settled in life. Intelligent and strong-willed, Cordelia has no wish to barter her fortune for a title and no wish to be married to any man who wants to curb her independent spirit. Giles Fenwick, Earl of Rockcliffe shares Cordelia's distaste for matrimony. A scarred Waterloo veteran who spent much of the war as one of Wellington's exploring officers and has yet to recover from his wartime experiences, he came into his title and fortune unexpectedly and has little respect for the polite world and the ambitions of the matchmaking mammas who see him as an eligible prospect for their daughters. The cynical Earl and the high-spirited merchant's daughter form an unlikely alliance based on their mutual determination to avoid matrimony. But Giles and Cordelia quickly discover that friendship can easily turn into much more, and that all marriages are not created equal... "The Reluctant Debutante" is the sequel to "A Regrettable Reputation" and the second of the Light Division Romances by the author of "An Unconventional Officer" and the Peninsular War Saga.
