She believes he hates her He has to fight not to fall in love with her
Lady Hester Montagu is well aware that she is not the most desirable lady among the ton despite being the daughter of a duke: she always says what comes to mind, her hair is too dull, and she is obsessed with birds.
Even so she figures there has to be someone for her, someone who will want her for more than her large dowry and family connections. Which is why she agrees to a house party where she will meet three eligible bachelors and hopefully form an attachment with one of them.
Flint Eavesgrave, the Earl of Lambourn, is not one of them. In fact, he is almost engaged to someone else. Someone who will make a suitable countess, but most importantly will never cause his heart any danger. Which is why he has to stay as far away from Lady Hester as possible.
