A Most Unusual Transformation in the Ton: A Wallflower 'Makeover' Historical Regency Romance Novel by Rika Mae Fleming
An unputdownable story of a wallflower spinster’s stunning makeover.

Said the modiste, “A woman that loves herself is a compelling woman indeed. For she tells the world, ‘I am worthy. You must treat me with respect.’”

Grace Ellington is plain, a wallflower, and decidedly on the shelf. Living with her uncle, aunt, and a vain, young cousin, Grace has accepted her fate of always being on the sidelines. Until a chance meeting with an influential dowager leads to an unexpected but gratefully received makeover.

Edward Sandlon, Duke of Lankpin, hasn't given marriage serious thought. Not even when his mother, dowager duchess Lady Sandlon, brings in not one but two unwed, gently-born women to his house. Edward is aghast when his mother tells him she means to launch (or relaunch) the two women in society alongside his sister.

But the dowager knows what she's doing. Launching three women at the same time is a feat that she must accomplish. After all, the future of both her children — her young daughter Sarah Sandlon and her son the Duke of Sandlon — is at stake. But even the best laid plans might sometimes meet obstacles...

The dowager never forgets a favor. In return for Grace's help, she tasks herself with ensuring a powerful metamorphosis of the agreeable woman she's taken on as protégé. She enlists the help of her son, who finds himself increasingly drawn to the plain woman who has been hiding in plain sight all her life.*A heart-warming, steamy, Regency romance novel.
