Comté du Dorset, 1818. La jeune et téméraire Kitty Talbot, aînée d'une fratrie de cinq soeurs, est dans le pétrin. Depuis le décès soudain de ses parents, elle se retrouve à la tête de sa famille criblée de dettes. Si une solution miraculeuse ne se présente pas bientôt, les filles Talbot vont perdre leur charmant cottage et être dans un grand dénuement. Kitty n'a d'autre choix que de partir pour Londres afin d'intégrer la haute société et de se fiancer avec un homme fortuné avant que la saison s'achève. Son plan se déroule sans accroc jusqu'à ce qu'elle soit démasquée par le beau et hautain Lord Radcliffe. Dès lors, Kitty doit redoubler d'efforts pour tenir cet agaçant ennemi à distance, apprivoiser les codes de ce monde impitoyable et - qui sait ? -trouver l'amour.
Une romance légère et décalée. Isabelle Raepsaet, La Voix du Nord.

Kitty Talbot needs a fortune.
Or rather, she needs a husband who has a fortune. This is 1818 after all, and only men have the privilege of seeking their own riches.
With just twelve weeks until Kitty and her sisters are made homeless, launching herself into London society is the only avenue open to her. And Kitty must use every ounce of cunning and ingenuity she possesses to climb the ranks.
The only one to see through her plans is the worldly Lord Radcliffe and he is determined to thwart her at any cost.
Can Kitty secure a fortune and save her sisters from poverty? There is not a day to lose and no one - not even a lord - will stand in her way... -
