Be careful what you wish for...
Lord Havelock is in need of a wife. But with no time for a society wedding and no stomach for girlish fripperies his options are limited. So, with help from his friends, he draws up a list of qualities he does desire in a wife...
When orphaned Mary Carpenter discovers her handsome new husband's list she's hurt - and incensed. If he thinks she'll sit meekly by, be 'compliant' and 'a mouse', he's got another think coming! Is it perhaps time for Mary to make a list of her own, and change the rules of their relationship for ever... ?
Autorentext
Annie Burrows love of stories meant that when she was old enough to go to university, she chose English literature. She wasn't sure what she wanted to do beyond that, but one day, she began to wonder if all those daydreams that kept her mind occupied whilst carrying out mundane chores, would provide similar pleasure to other women. She was right... and Annie hasn't looked back since.
