Lovers and Madmen

Lord Edward Phillip Thomas George Walpole, Marquess of Burbridge, is as stodgy as his very English name—and a night spent at a ball fashioned after a ridiculous romp of a play, is his own personal version of hell. But balls are where deals are made, and it is vital he have Lord Whitwell’s political support in brokering a treaty with France that will end more than a decade of war. Therefore, he must attend.

But will Lady Calliope Hughes, as free-spirited as Edward is staid, open his eyes to what magic can be made in the moonlight?
