Little Mischief [Mass Market Paperback] Grey, Amelia

Miss Arianna Sweet is London's most hopeless debutante — clumsy, outspoken, and entirely too honest for polite society. After one disastrous ballroom incident too many, her family ships her off to the countryside to learn proper decorum. Enter Viscount Stonehurst, a widowed rake with a dark past and zero interest in marriage, who's been tasked with chaperoning his niece's new companion. What should be a simple arrangement turns complicated when Arianna's refreshing candor and inability to follow rules crack through his carefully maintained walls. Amelia Grey writes Regency romance with wit and warmth, pairing genuine chemistry with a heroine who feels wonderfully real amid the stiff social constraints of 1800s England. If you want ballgowns and banter without the bodice-ripping melodrama, this delivers.
