Gazebo Rendezvous — Martha Jean Powers
THE DUKE'S HANDSOME WARD WAS NO LAD, BUT A WOMAN--AND A HEARTBROKEN ONE AT THAT!
Of course the formidable Duke of Ruhaven would readily accept his new ward if she were a boy. So plucky Miss Leslie Lathrup contrived a most cunning disguise!
But thanks to Lady Cecily Cleavon, poor Leslie's heart became her undoing! Hoping to turn the Duke's head from that silly chit, Leslie devised a rendezvous with the Duke and a gypsy charmer--herself! Innocent that she was, she never dreamed of the Duke's amorous response... or that she would fall hopelessly in love!
Worse! When dear Ruhaven discovers she is no lad, but a young lady of breeding, he insists they marry to avoid scandal. Heartbroken, Leslie wonders, will his eyes, now blazing with fury, ever shine with love?
