Amelia Stalwood lives in a London townhouse, but she's never actually met any nobility. Then, by chance, she meets the Hawthorne family, who welcome her into their world. When a nasty rumor is circulated, threatening her reputation, society turns its back on her. Will her new friends--and the marquis she's fallen for--do the same?

WOW. So that completely blew my expectations out of the water.

This book was so. stinkin'. good. It was full of hilarious lines (I laughed out loud at least 4 or 5 times, I kid you not), amazing characters, poignant themes, and an adorable romance to boot. THIS BOOK HONESTLY MADE ME SOOOO HAPPY. <333

The characters all felt so incredibly real and fleshed out. And trust me, that's a remarkable feat, considering it's only a novella. Miranda and her siblings acted like real siblings, what with their glares, snarky comments, and playful banter. OH, AND THEY CRACKED ME UP, JUST SAYIN.'

And let's not forget Anthony and Amelia. They were just the cutest, okay? Their relationship felt natural and not at all rushed. And...and...I JUST LOVE THEMMMMM. THEY BELONG TOGETHER.

This story was the bestest. If you're looking for a clean, hilarious, adorable read (with some powerful themes intermixed), then look no further than this gem. 

(Oh, and can we talk about that cover? Because it is beautimous. ^_^)
