Description
Die Wallflowers: Gegen alle Widerstände machen sie die besten Partien der Saison. Annabelle Peyton ist schön, stolz und klug – aber verarmt. Nur eine vorteilhafte Ehe kann sie und ihre Familie noch retten. Doch die adligen Junggesellen Londons meiden eine Lady ohne Vermögen. Einzig Simon Hunt, ein schwerreicher, ungehobelter, wenn auch äußerst attraktiver Geschäftsmann, hat ein Auge auf sie geworfen. Und er macht kein Geheimnis aus seinen unlauteren Absichten. Als Annabelle auf einem Ball drei weitere Mauerblümchen – Lillian, Daisy und Evie – kennenlernt, scheint sich ihr Schicksal zu wenden. Die vier jungen Frauen beschließen, einander bei der Suche nach vermögenden Ehemännern zu helfen. Als Erstes verschaffen sie Annabelle eine Einladung zum Fest der Saison. Unter den Gästen allerdings auch: Simon Hunt.
