Summary
Miss Evans is a young woman of one and twenty who completely and utterly knows her mind. She refuses to be ruled by men and is set on the idea of never submitting to a husband’s sceptre. Fleeing her sister’s home to teach at Gryffindor House, a school for genteel young girls, she expects nothing and no one to change her mind for she will only be persuaded to marry when she finds the deepest of love.
His Grace James Potter - Lord of Peverell, son to a Duke and Duchess, owner of a large fortune and soon-to-be a member of the House of Lords - is a man of one and twenty and – by any and all accounts, just ask Mrs Bagshot – far too young to concern himself with thoughts of matrimony. But he – as his friends will attest and to his mother’s delight – finds himself stupidly in love after a mere moment’s acquaintance with Miss Evans.
The joy of being crossed in love so unexpectedly is hard to come by and even harder to act on.
