Introduction One moment Tish was hovering above the trees in her beautiful hot-air balloon. The next, she had plummeted to earth. But thanks to the Earl of Ardenly, a dreadful accident had been averted. Surely the last thing Lady Letitia "Tish" Abbott wanted, or needed, was the sudden romantic interest of a determined young nobleman. At best they were a mismatched pair who seemed able only to agree to disagree. And Tish had more important things to think about. Namely the scandal that had exiled her proud family to England's exquisite Lake District and the fortune that was no longer theirs. Now Tish had a plan that would change all that. A balloon trip over the English Channel. A trip that would make her famous and rich and, as society dictated, unsuitable to marry the man she knew, at last, she loved.
