A Miss with a Purpose

by Rebecca Ashley (Pseudonym), Lois Arvin Walker

HE PITIED THE POOR SOD WHO LOST HIS HEART TO THIS AUDACIOUS MISS....

Though fate had made them co-inheritors of a mill in Manchester, Arabella Fairingdale's plea for funds to improve the appalling working conditions met with Lord Ridgeton's deaf ears. Thus Arabella had one goal: to make Lord Ridgeton a man of great social conscience.

Don't really remember, but I chose to keep.

[Robin Loisch · Rating 5 out of 5]

Spunky young Arabella works to convince Lord Ridgeton to live up to his responsibilities by funding repairs to a mill they co-own. Cute, fun, and clean story.

[Courtney · Rating 3 out of 5]

Very quick read, no surprises & nothing more than a few chaste kisses, but still a diversion
