Lord Wentworth is one of London’s most eligible and handsome bachelors and his mother has her sights set on an advantageous match. Miss Agnes Bottombrook at the age of twenty-nine feels herself firmly on the shelf and is reconciled to the idea she will never marry. When Lord Wentworth sees Miss Bottombrook, he instantly falls head over heels and does everything he can to prove to her, his mother, and society that she is the only woman he wants or needs. Agnes can’t seem to trust this sudden interest and worries that she will be made a fool of if she dares to risk her heart. The only thing worse than that would be to miss out on true love and happiness because she couldn’t take the risk.
