Synopsis

Lady Anne Tremayne is coming to Town
Anne was not best pleased when her godmother's family dealt with their troublesome ward by shipping her off to school. After years of being ignored by the aristocratic young Debenham brothers, a bit of revenge may be in order. Especially that arrogant, overbearing, insufferable Charles needs a lesson, and Anne is determined to teach it to him.

And London may never be the same
Charles, Laurence, and Edward Debenham are steeling themselves to do their duty and guide the rebellious young miss through her first London season. They are completely unprepared for the fact that the wild, gawky girl has grown into a dazzling beauty-and she's about to turn all of their lives upside down.

Praise for Once Again a Bride:

"Superb writing...and gentle wit make this a romance that shouldn't be missed." -Library Journal

About this title

From the Back Cover

The aristocratic Debenham clan grew exceedingly uneasy when Lady Anne Tremayne left the school where she had been safely sequestered. For now it was the Debenhams' task to see this irredeemably rebellious young Miss through her first London season.The elegant and imperious Charles Debenham, her legal guardian, was worried about her manners. Handsome clergyman Laurence Debenham was concerned with her morals. And the youngest and most rakish Debenham, Edward, was bothered by the disruption she threatened to his social life.But only when these three gentlemen saw Anne did they fully realize how much they had to fear. Their wild ward had become a dazzling beauty -- and her guardians had to guard themselves from becoming her slaves. --Backcover copy
