An Eligible Connection (a Regency Romance‪)‬

Lieutenant Neal Baskerville would never forget his first glimpse of Miss Delilah Mannering, perched upon a stile, her ragged skirts hitched up to her knees, in one hand a half-eaten peach, a monstrously ugly dog sprawled at her bare and very dirty feet. This was the heiress he was to bring back to Brighton, to be taken under his sister's wing? Regency Romance by Maggie MacKeever; originally published by Fawcett Coventry
