[wyvernfriend · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

When Darius Carlyle the Duke of Albury suggests that every actress wants to marry a duke Calista Fairmont takes umbrage, Darius decides to prove to his cousin that this is the case by luring in Calista and getting her to assent to marriage, but as he gets to know her more he's falling in love and what will happen when she discovers the bet...It's harmless enough stuff, the ending was a bit limp.
