When Daddy s funds suddenly dry up, including the generous allowance, Lara is left high and dry with rent to pay and only one bottle of champagne in the fridge Then a phone call changes everything. Her grandmother wants to send Cousin Beatrix to stay so that Lara can teach her how to be sophisticated and flirtatious: quiet, rural, country-dance-loving, heavy-eyebrowed Beatrix. It s going to be quite a challenge, but Grandmother is willing to pay Meanwhile, Jack is widowed farmer in Dorset with two young sons, a talent for art and a desire for someone to share it all with.
