When first we practice to deceive...
All Morwenna Beaugard wanted was to be able to give gifts to the other business-girls that worked with her at Frith Chambers without giving away her shameful secret: she was not as poor as they were but was a lady of private means!
So when she invents a beau for herself, a Mr. Paul Wright, and pretends that the gifts she dispenses like Lady Bountiful are from him, she never realizes what a tangled web will result, and how, worst of all, she may end up with...
The Wrong Mr. Right.
Praise for Berta Ruck:
"One can always depend on finding an interesting plot, strongly tinged with originality, in any novel by this author."
