About
A PRETTY PUZZLE by Marilyn Clay, is a Regency Romance set near the walled city of Chester, England. Chelsea hadn't planned to be a deceiver. She'd been the prettiest and most penniless young lady at Miss Farringdon's Academy in Brighton. Befriending spoiled heiress Alayna Marchmont and telling her about a family scandal was a schoolgirl's naïve mistake. Now, Alayna has blackmailed Chelsea into spending a dull month in the country with Alayna's elderly aunt while pretending to be Alayna! Both girls are blonde and a similar size, and Aunt Millicent is nearly blind.
The plan might have worked but for the arrival of Aunt Millicent's nephew, Lord Rathbone, who has come to England to claim his bride, Miss Marchmont, sight unseen. Rathbone is not disappointed with his "fiancée." Although she fights her feelings, Chelsea is falling in love with the handsome, albeit misled, nobleman. This affair of the heart could lead to disaster, unless she can find a way to stop the foolish masquerade without losing a handsome lord's love.
