About the book
"Young Lady Samantha Mayne had no desire to be a proper young lady. Let her cousin Emma dress in fashionable gowns, attend glittering balls, and hunt a mate in the marriage mart. Samantha preferred to aid her brother George's scientific experiments, wear breeches, ride horses astride, not side saddle and be most wary of wedlock. Then Samantha met Lord Charles Laverstock. Lord Charles was more handsome, charming and gallant than Samantha had ever imagined a man could be. Lord Charles also clearly could never be interested in a girl who broke every rule and scorned every feminine wile. For free-spirited Samantha, becoming a lady would be the hardest of possible tasks ... even if it was a labour of love."--BOOK COVER.
