Do you love My Fair Lady
If you answered an unequivocal yes, go get yourself a copy of My Unfair Lady by Kathryne Kennedy. This Victorian romance will win you over faster than you can say the “Rain in Spain!”
So much happens in this novel. It combines quite a bit of different elements including a bastard son, being partly raised by Indians, best friend finding and marrying a baron, fox hunts, horse races, and a murder plot!
Summer Wine Lee is a silver heiress from America. She’s a knife wearing, former Arizonian in love with Monte. He is a dashing young fellow from a highly placed family in New York society. One ball ruined Summer’s chances of a proper match with him unless she could win the favor of his snooty mother. In order to do this she heads off to England to win the favor or at least a meeting with the Queen.
The Duke of Monchester is Summer’s ticket to winning over Monte’s mother and English society. He hates grubby new money American heiresses trying to buy their way into respectability by marrying his fellow impoverished gentlemen. He uses his ready wit and sharp tongue to amuse the King and keep in favor. One half hour in Summer’s presence is enough to keep him housed in the royal court for a year and is amused in spite of himself.
Will Bryon be able to make her respectable? Does he want her to be? Find out!

I didn’t really like Summer in this book…her wishy washy attitude with Monte bothered me!
It had its cute moments though
