About this ebook
Aurelia Sinclair felt as though she had been waiting forever for the proposal of marriage from her childhood sweetheart, Justin. If Lord Spencer was less than ardent, well, what could a plump dowdy creature such as herself expect from such a handsome buck of the ton? No matter what she might long for, she had to be content with what Justin offered, friendship and a marriage of convenience.
Or so Aurelia thought until Everard Ramsey took matters into his hands. Rusticating in the country, the handsome London dandy was intrigued by Aurelia’s humor and intelligence. His sympathy for Aurelia’s plight led him to make an outrageous suggestion. If she would but place her trust in him, Everard vowed to transform her into next Season’s belle. Though Aurelia was highly skeptical of his proposition, what did she have to lose? Nothing. . . only her heart.

Reviews for The Sugar Rose
14 ratings3 reviews
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Aurelia Sinclair felt utter delight with the prearranged proposal of her childhood sweetheart, Lord Justin Spencer. Unfortunately, the handsome Justin was less than ardent in return. But if the fastidious Everard Ramsey could help Aurelia with her wardrobe and sweet tooth, surely his friend Justin would take notice. Yet when the slender and radiant Aurelia emerged from her cocoon, Everard began to wish Justin far away. A lovely light read. Just what I needed. I haven't ben able to get into anything I've picked up for the past few days and this delightful tale has broken the drought. I had a chuckle at some of the dialogue between Aurelia and Everard.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Very sweet romance with some humorous dialogue and very likeable characters
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Its such a delightful book. Everyone of the characters are great. The story too is tight knit.
