Something Wonderful

Alexandra Lawrence is well known in her small village since her father was the only "gentleman" to ever come there, but when he dies and her family is faced with the truth of his life, she's forced to take over the running of her household at a young age.

Her mother, hoping for a marriage of prosperity sets out to get her tom-boyish daughter wed as soon as possible, when an incident with the Duke of Hawthorne turns the tables on everyones thoughts.

Now, with her reputation shattered in the village, something must be done to make up for the loss. and only the thought of making the man responsible give his vow will keep the peace.

Alexandra, young and niave, sets out to prove she can be everything they say she's not, and when her short marriage is plunged into tragedy, her determination becomes even stronger. But London doesn't take to her girlish fancies that keep them laughing behind her back.

But who was responsible for the Duke's demise in the first place? and is he really dead?
