Publisher's Summary
Benedict Fairburn does not quite need his ailing great-aunt's fortune, especially since he'll have to marry to get it. His family, however, thinks otherwise - as do many of the eligible ladies in London - and the pressure is mounting. An embarrassment of attentions fill Benny's time, but the young lady he prefers roundly dislikes him.
Claire Dalton, cousin to one of Benedict's oldest friends, is too busy debuting in Society to pay much attention to the Fairburn boy who once insulted her past bearing. He doesn't recognize her, but that's hardly upsetting, especially with the fetching Mr. Graham offering his arm.
Unfortunately, Mr. Graham is not all he seems, and each week brings a fresh disaster for Claire's first Season. It's enough to drive a young woman to distraction, especially since Benny Fairburn keeps behaving so very oddly. Concealed tragedy, poor orphans, a dotty great-aunt, deception and misunderstanding whirl in every direction, ready to explode.
Benedict and Claire are perfect for each other. Unfortunately, it may take catastrophe to make them realize as much....
The Lovelorn Lads: A man needs manners, if he is to marry.

Frustrating
I pushed myself to finish this and actually wish I hadn’t bothered as the journey through this story just wasn’t worth the wasted time.
Honestly, Benny is nice enough but a bit of a man child. And Claire is an emotionally stunted self-riteous walking contradiction who needs to lighten up.
I wanted to like these two, and (initially) see them end up together happily ever after, but felt them insipid and annoying (especially Claire) that I just couldn’t in the end. Claire needed a personality readjustment and Benny needed to find his balls before they had the saccharine happy ending.
The ‘Lads’ were an interesting mix of characters but even they couldn’t save this.
Not my cup of tea no matter how many lumps of sugar you may offer me.
