All for love....

That was Lady Amelia Lytton's notion of nuptial bliss, one that her parents heartily endorsed. Yet her father, determined to quench her penchant for social pranks, dared to arrange a marriage between Amelia and a complete stranger who lived an ocean away. To be sure, the bold beauty readily embraced the prospect of a new life in America--but calculated matrimony? Amelia swiftly set out to hinder the arrangement with the same outre escapades that had shocked Mayfair. But this was Philadelphia, where her smashingly handsome groom and most of society were utterly impervious to her "scandalous" behavior. And where misadventure and romance could bloom between a spirited--if somewhat unwilling--bride and her dashing--if infuriatingly self-possessed--groom.
