The Famous Heroine
Balogh, Mary
Neptune City, New Jersey, U.S.A.: Penguin Group - Signet, 1996. 220 Pages. February 1996 Edition. Slightly concave spine, minor cover edge wear, and owner's name label first page. Miss Cora Downes was only a merchant's daughter. But when she saved a duke's son from drowning, her reward was entry into London high society. Cora had a style of beauty and mode of manners that made her a fish out of water in that sophisticated world. But when she saved a highborn lady's poodles from disaster, she became the belle of every ball. Cora had never met a man like the exquisitely elegant, unabashedly blue-blooded Lord Francis Kneller. But when they found themselves in a position too compromising to conceal, nothing could save her from a marriage to a man who would surely disdain her as a wife. Nothing could save her then from the threat of heartbreak --- nothing, perhaps, except a most unlikely love. . First Printing Stated. Mass Market Paperback. Good.
