Prologue
Fourteen Months Ago
Grosvenor Square
Lady Alexandria, eldest daughter of the Earl and Countess of Wilshire,
and the unequivocal toast of the ton, held her head high as she descended the
grand staircase into a pool of admiring peers.

Audible gasps could be heard when guests crowded around, craning their
necks and perching on the tips of their toes in order to be the first to see what
she was wearing. Alexandria’s fashion sense was as renowned as her beauty,
and the name of her dressmaker one of the best kept secrets in London.
She stopped on the bottom step and waited patiently, a smile fixed on her
face as she let them stare and study. Some of the more industrious ladies even
whipped out clothbound journals and jotted down notes to bring to their
modistes first thing in the morning. By week’s end, there would be a small
army of Alexandria lookalikes marching about Hyde Park. If imitation was
the sincerest form of flattery, then she was drowning in adulation. And it was
only about to get worse, for tonight, in honor of the Belingrove Ball, the most
prestigious event of the entire Season, her dressmaker had truly outdone
herself.
The gown was yellow, but shimmered like gold under the dancing
firelight cast by glittering chandeliers. It fit Alexandria’s svelte frame like a
silk glove, hugging her voluptuous curves at the bodice and hip before falling
away in a waterfall of satin and chiffon. The scalloped train trimmed in lace
fanned out behind her as she descended the final stair, rippling across the
glossy marble tile as if lifted on the wings of doves (or so the gossip papers
would read in the morning).
