About the book

The Bewildered Bride Miss Jennie Bemyss was in a position that any intelligent young lady would envy. The wealthy, worldly Marquis of Charrington proposed a marriage of convenience that would leave him free to pursue his pleasures, and leave Jennie free of his undoubtedly depraved desires. At the same time, handsome, charming Guy Chalmers, whom she had loved since childhood, proposed to aid her in enjoying her freedom to the fullest. Jennie should have felt happy to be ignored by a man whom she properly should despise. She should have felt even happier to be courted by a man whom she had so long adored. Why, then, did Jennie only feel so confused...?
