She Overheard the Duke Call Her 'The Plain One Who'll Never Win' - At the Ball He Announced HER Name
She was brought to Wychcombe Hall for one cruel purpose: to be the plain foil that makes her dazzling cousin shine before the Duke of Oakmere as he chooses a bride. Rosanna Fairbourne, a poor relation with a scarred cheek, a mended gray gown, and a blind grandfather to protect, refuses to grovel, refuses to perform, and refuses to disappear. She speaks the truth in rooms built on flattery, wins the loyalty of the servants, and becomes the only person who can reach the Duke's grieving, silent little ward. But when she overhears the Duke himself dismiss her as 'the plain one who'll never win,' her heart breaks and she prepares to flee to the loveless marriage her scheming aunt has arranged. She does not know his cruel words were a shield to protect her from sabotage, or that at the betrothal ball, before the entire ton, he intends to stand up and announce the plain one's name. When he does, the ballroom goes silent.
