A Gentleman's Guide to Once Upon a Time

His Impetuous Debutante Özet

Lady Phoebe Johansen embarks upon her first season with two goals in mind - to remain unwed and scandal-free in London.

It isn't that she is against marriage, and if her situation were different, she would welcome the opportunity for love and children. It is just not practical. Unfortunately, her older brother is smothering any chances she has of actually enjoying the season out of fear her impetuous nature will land her in predicaments more ruinous than the physical mishaps she had suffered at home.

Taylor Qualls, the Earl of Sandlin, is forced once again to face his own obligations this season. He has a year and a half to find a suitable bride and produce the heir as dictated in his grandfather's will. Nobody needs to tell him that Lady Phoebe is the last woman on Earth he should marry. After all, given his own track record with wives and Lady Phoebe's penchant for mishaps, she wouldn't survive a month as his bride.
