Secrets of a Summer Night by Lisa Kleypas

From the New York Times bestselling author of Devil
in Disguise, the first book in her beloved Wallflowers series.

The Wallflowers: four
young ladies at the side of the ballroom make a pact to help each other find
husbands . . . no matter what it takes.

Proud and beautiful
Annabelle Peyton could have her pick of suitors--if only she had a dowry. Her
family is on the brink of disaster, and the only way Annabelle can save them is
to marry a wealthy man. Unfortunately her most persistent admirer is the brash
Simon Hunt, a handsome and ambitious entrepreneur who wants her as his
mistress.

Annabelle is
determined to resist Simon's wicked propositions, but she can't deny her
attraction to the boldly seductive rogue, any more than he can resist the challenge
she presents. As they try to outmaneuver each other, they find themselves
surrendering to a love more powerful than they could have ever imagined. But
fate may have other plans--and it will take all of Annabelle's courage to face a
peril that could destroy everything she holds dear.
