How does an intelligent Regency gentleman end up in a bit of a scandalous mess with a Society-savvy lady?
One might say that the more important question would be how do they get themselves out of it?
Ashe Trease, (yes, that is his family name) is a charming gentleman but a little out of place amongst the Ton. He’s only there to escort his Mama and sister, and doesn’t really give a fig for Society. He has no idea that he’s about to meet a young woman with the same views
Miss Florinda Boothe is every inch a lady, accustomed to the world...

Miss Florinda Boothe is every inch a lady, accustomed to the world she inhabits, but irritated by it, nonetheless. To her surprise, she’s intrigued to meet a handsome gentleman with not only an intelligent mind, but also a similar opinion, and when they cross paths more than once? Well, you know what’s going to happen, don’t you?
There are rides, frisky horses, a screeching soprano, a disastrous trip in a punt on the Thames, and—of course—a shocking scandal, thanks to a modiste’s mistake!!!
Can these two Society ‘rebels’ outwit the gossips? Can Florinda see past the forest to the Trease? (Sorry, it had to be said.)
