Now the Season is drawing to a close, and if such a man exists, he has been keeping himself well-hidden. Painfully aware of having failed her family, Penelope makes a bargain with herself: She will accept the next eligible offer she receives, but first, she'll make the most of her freedom by stealing away to Bartholomew Fair. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAt the fair, she falls prey to a thimblerigger and is rescued by Philippe Valois, an itinerant swordsman who ekes out a living by taking on all comers. Seeing that \"Miss Fair\" appears to be alone, he appoints himself her escort. But Bartholomew Fair only lasts for three days, after which Penelope and the intriguing Frenchman must part ways forever. Great is her surprise when, two months later, she attends a Leicestershire hunting-party fully expecting to become betrothed to her host, only to discover Philippe posing as one of the footmen. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePhilip Markham is a man on a mission to reclaim his stolen heritage.

When he discovers that she is a guest in the house where he'd planned to make his move, he isn't sure whether her presence will bring his plans to fruition...or ruin.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 276\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.62 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 17, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44124971270279,"sku":"9798991736909","price":20.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/OF5op1yOcP9798991736909.webp?v=1773089425","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/fairest-of-the-fayre-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
