Young Lady Francine Giles had known Lord Julian Whitehead for as long as she could recall. She and the handsome Viscount had grown up on neighboring estates, shared youthful games and pranks, and had become the closest of friends. That was the trouble. For Julian persisted in remaining thoroughly unaware that Francine's heart belonged to him and him alone. And somehow this country Miss had to make the wordly lord realize she was no longer a girl but a woman. And then she had to teach him the difference between childhood friendship and grown-up love.
