Miss Vanessa Pymbroke was bewitchingly lovely, sparklingly witty, and thoroughly unrestrained. What she wanted to do, she did-no matter how she shocked and troubled society. The she met Peter, Viscount Chance, possessor of one of England's greatest fortunes. Clearly a gentleman in his position could take only the most proper person as his wife, no matter how enchanting he found Vanessa. Vanessa's devilish dilemma was this: should she change her ways to win the one man who had eve captured her carefree heart? Or should she simply try to change him. I gave this book three stars because I didn't care to much for Vanessa. To willful for my liking.

I agree with the first reviewer that the heroine, Vanessa was just a little too self-absorbed and sure of herself. She seemed to be missing the depth that separates a truly great character from a mediocre one.

Lord Chance was also very slow to perceive the realities around him and the couple themselves didn't seem to have much spark.

There are interesting side stories going on in the book that do push me to recommend it. Maybe because of the side stories, Ms. Clark was sidetracked into allowing the main story to under develop.
