Nicola and the Viscount

by Meg Cabot

Nicola Sparks is a sixteen-year-old orphan who's ready to plunge into the busy London season. Several have eyes for her, but she only has eyes for Lord Sebastian, to whom she refers as "the god." He is handsome and wealthy and would make her a viscountess.

When Lord Sebastian proposes marriage to her, Nicola is surprised and thrilled. But warnings come from more than one gentleman, and intrigue soon plagues Miss Sparks. Perhaps the viscount and his intentions are not what they seem to be.

Cheesy regency romance written for teens. Take a pass and go for the adult novels, especially by Julia Quinn!

PS: For fans of Avalon High: Cabot makes reference to the lily maid of Astolat on p. 130. She must be obsessed with this minor Arthurian character.
