Noble Destiny

"Noble Destiny" by Katie MacAlister, published by Leisure Books. FromAfter scandalously eloping with an Italian count, Charlotte Collins returns to England a penniless widow and finds to her dismay that she is no longer welcomed by polite society. Determined to regain her rightful place as the toast of the ton, Charlotte begins searching for an eligible, wealthy, and, more important, handsome, nobleman. Already hunted by every marriage-minded miss and lovelorn widow in London, Alasdair ''Dare'' McGregor has no intention of succumbing to Charlotte's matrimonial schemes, but somehow he winds up having to propose to the seductive minx. Charlotte is convinced that Dare will now provide her with everything she most desires, only to find that her new husband insists on a marriage based on love. So Charlotte, a remarkably original heroine whose unique outlook and frequent mangling of English will bemuse, bewitch, and beguile readers, constructs another of her ''brilliant'' plans. Imbued with a delectable sense of wit, the second of MacAlister's ''Noble'' Regency historical romances is an irresistible, laughter-laced treat. John CharlesCopyright © American Library Association.
