Publisher's Summary
Earning the nickname Lady Agony was no minor achievement for Lady Agatha Bolingbroke. It required a great deal of effort to make herself so disagreeable, but she did it for a good cause: The fewer invitations she received, the more time she had to paint. Her mother, refusing to accept an unpopular daughter - or, worse, a talented one - insists on dragging her to every event of the season. To thwart her parents and to vent her frustration, Agatha creates a wicked alter ego: a caricaturist whose mocking illustrations take ruthless aim at the ridiculousness of the ton. Her most recent target is Viscount Addleson, whom she dubs Viscount Addlewit for his handsome but empty head.
Then one of Agatha's drawings goes too far, and a villain threatens to reveal her true identity if she doesn't comply with his demands. Now she has an impossible choice - ruin herself or an innocent young lady. And to her utter amazement, the only person who can help her is Lord Addleson, whose handsome head, upon closer inspection, isn't empty at all, and whose eyes are full of mischief.
Suddenly, she finds it very difficult to be disagreeable to him.

Delightful humour and clever satire abound in this lively tale.
Lady Agatha has determined to repel all suitors in order to focus on her painting and sketching and has earned her title as Lady Agony. Her secret talent as a satirical cartoonist provides an outlet for her frustration at society and its expectations but leads to some difficulties. The advent on the scene of Viscount Addleston whose bizarre sense of humour disguises an intelligence and understanding which proves vital in preventing social ruin creates an altogether new challenge for Lady Agony. Amusing and charming this was an enjoyable book.
