Derriford: Confirmed Bachelors Book 5
Jenny Hambly
Miss Mary Coker is a spinster fast approaching her thirtieth birthday. Having rejected the only offer of marriage ever offered her when she was nineteen, she has long ago given up on the prospect of a home of her own. She is resigned to a life supporting her Mama and siblings. When Lord Derriford arrives in the neighbourhood, she soon notices his awkwardness in dealing with the fairer sex and determines to try and make him more comfortable.
She discovers there is rather more to him than meets the eye.
