In her Wallflower Quartet Lisa Kleypas tells the stories of four young girls - Annabelle, the American sisters Lillian and Daisy, and Evangeline - all presumed wallflowers, who band together to find a husband. This book is dedicated to Annabelle Peyton, a young woman of aristocratic but impoverished background, who wants to better her family's finances by ensnaring a rich and titled husband - a task that is not easily obtained. On the other hand there is a successful commoner, Simon Hunt, a self-made-man from inferior background but with bright and lucrative ideas about the upcoming railroad industry, who would gladly provide Annabelle with money for a few favors. Too bad that the lady seems not interested at first. But Lisa Kleypas wouldn't be a well-known author of romance if she could not think of ways to impress the lady and to turn her world upside down. A nice and easy read, but not the best of the wallflower series. An entertaining story worth reading nevertheless.
