Splendid -- Julia Quinn

<p>Based on the phenomenal growth of Quinn&#8242;s popularity, and her four-week stint on the New York Times bestseller list with Romancing Mr Bridgerton, it&#8242;s the perfect time to revisit Ms Quinn&#8242;s &#8242;splendid&#8242; storytelling.</p><p>American heiress Emma Dunster has always been fun-loving and independent with no wish to settle into marriage. She plans to enjoy her Season in London in more unconventional ways than husband-hunting. But this time Emma&#8242;s high-jinks lead her into dangerous temptation...</p><p>Alexander Ridgely, the Duke of Ashbourne, is a notorious rake who carefully avoids the risk of love...until he plants one reckless kiss on the sensuous lips of this high-spirited innocent...and condemns himself to delicious torment. Little does he know that his passion has touched the very soul of the lovely enchantress...and committed them both to a lifetime of splendid ecstasy. </p><br><br><b>Author:</b> Julia Quinn<br><b>Publisher:</b> Avon Books<br><b>Published:</b> 08/26/2003<br><b>Pages:</b> 400<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Paperback<br><b>Weight:</b> 0.42lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 6.93h x 4.21w x 1.11d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9780380780747
