Every young man in London's ton is vying for Lady Caroline Hawke's hand—except one. Handsome roué Prince Leopold of Alucia can't quite remember Caroline's name, and the insult is not to be tolerated. So Caroline does what any clever, resourceful lady of means would do to make sure Leo never again forgets: sees that scandalous morsels about his reputation are printed in a ladies' gossip gazette…all while secretly setting her cap for the rakish royal.
