SynopsisNew York Times bestselling author Eloisa James returns with the first novel in a brand-new series featuring a brilliant romance between a British heiress and an American businessman vying for the same costume emporium. Miss Cleopatra Lewis may be the granddaughter of a viscount, but she has spent the last few years tending the enormous fortune her father left her, which stems from the sale of toilets. Her mother's last wish is that she meet her grandfather, who immediately announces that he will introduce her to society. She will need an entirely new wardrobe, so she makes her way to a costume emporium--and ends up buying the establishment. Jake Astor Addison is an American financier in London to buy the Emporium, with a ring snug in his pocket ready to offer to the lady of his choice back in America. But when he walks into the business that he intends to transfer to New York, he discovers that a British lady has bought it out from under his nose. Cleo and Jake cross swords: he wants the Emporium, and she will never give it up to such a vexing man. Jake is equally convinced that no on in polite society will order clothing from Cleo's new business. They strike a deal: Cleo will order a flamboyant wardrobe for Jake--who only wears black--and Jake will order Cleo's half-mourning wardrobe. London society will judge who should own the Emporium., From New York Times bestseller Eloisa James, a new Regency-set novel in which a heiress with the goal of being a wallflower engages a rugged American in a scorchingly sensual, witty wager that tests whether clothing does indeed make the man--or the wallflower! A perfect companion story to Eloisa's My American Duchess. Miss Cleopatra Lewis is about to be launched in society by her aristocratic grandfather. But since she has no intention of marrying, she visits a costume emporium specifically to order unflattering dresses guaranteed to put off any prospective suitors. Powerful and charismatic Jacob Astor Addison is in London, acquiring businesses to add to his theatrical holdings in America--as well as buying an emerald for a young lady back in Boston. He's furious when a she-devil masquerading as an English lady steals Quimby's Costume Emporium from under his nose. Jake strikes a devil's bargain, offering to design her "wallflower wardrobe" and giving Cleo the chance to design his. Cleo can't resist the fun of clothing the rough-hewn American in feathers and flowers. And somehow in the middle of their lively competition, Jake becomes her closest friend. It isn't until Cleo becomes the toast of all society that Jake realizes she's stolen his fiercely guarded heart. But unlike the noblemen at her feet, he doesn't belong in her refined and cultured world. Caught between the demands of honor and desire, Jake would give up everything to be with the woman he loves--if she'll have him! Cleo's unconventional background and Jake's American roots cause a stir in the rigid social hierarchy of Regency England., From New York Times bestseller Eloisa James, a new Regency-set novel in which a heiress with the goal of being a wallflower engages a rugged American in a scorchingly sensual, witty wager that tests whether clothing does indeed make the man--or the wallflower!
