Lady Victoria Keyes is beautiful, well-mannered, and an heiress. She's been beset by suitors since her come-out, but has yet to meet someone she actually wants to marry. When a fire breaks out at her dressmaker's, she swears to marry whoever rescues her...and it's a rich titled hottie named Ingram. But between his disreputable dog, even more disreputable manservant, a scandalous duel in his past, and a long list of ladies he feels the need to help, Torrie and Ingram might never be able to get together.
As is usual to Regency romances, all the plot (the kidnappings, the arson, the murder, etc) wraps up a bit too conveniently. But the writing is just fine, I bought the characters' affection for each other, and there's a nice dose of humor to this.
