The Designing Debutantes have arrived, and they're taking the ton by storm . . .
Youthful military widow Eliza Pierce is enjoying her freedom and financial success as part of Elegant Occasions. But when her late husband's best friend, Nathaniel Stanton, the Earl of Foxstead, hires her to help another young widow become part of high society, she can't help but wonder why. The woman could be a relative, or maybe even his mistress; but if so, then why does he take Eliza in his arms every chance he gets?
Foxstead's family situation makes it difficult for him to marry, so his visceral attraction to Eliza is an unwelcome complication. Burdened by family secrets and those of his commanding officer, Foxstead is determined not to be distracted, but the fetching Eliza keeps tempting him to break his own rules.
If Foxstead dares to expose the truth, will Eliza ever forgive him?
Or will she banish him from her life forever . . .

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Jeffries fills Regency London's ballrooms with steamy trysts and scandalous secrets in her sexy second Designing Debutants romance (after A Duke for Diana). When widow Eliza Pierce, who co-owns party planning service Elegant Occasions with her sisters, agrees to help Nathanial Stanton, Earl of Foxstead, launch his mysterious new ward, Jocelin, a single mother, into society, she decides to also use the opportunity to get closer to handsome Nathaniel. Nathanial has always fancied intelligent, mild-mannered Eliza, but her late husband was his best friend, so he's never allowed himself to act on his feelings—until now. Enjoying the independence of widowhood, Eliza has vowed never to remarry, meanwhile Nathanial harbors a secret that keeps him from forming a permanent connection. As the pair embark on a steamy affair, however, they soon realize that they have more than just their bedroom proclivities in common and love grows. The characters' chemistry is strong, and the mystery of Nathanial's connection to Jocelin keeps the pages turning. Jeffries delivers.
