The Determined Debutante. E-book. Formato EPUB. <b><i>Winning isn&rsquo;t everything when love is on the line.</i></b><br />Clarissa Ellison is your typical Aries: everything is a competition. So, when she makes her debut into Regency London Society, she determines that in order to &quot;win&quot; the Season, she must get a proposal from the Duke of Drayton. The only problem is that his closest friend, the handsome and thoughtful Lord Uxbridge, is quickly becoming someone she can&#39;t live without.<br />Jonathan, Lord Uxbridge, has always been called &quot;Ox&quot; for the obvious reason&mdash;he&#39;s big. But, as a true Gemini, there are two sides to this man. To the world, he&#39;s outgoing, but in private, he relaxes by painting beautiful miniatures. Because his size generally puts fear into the eyes of young ladies, Ox had planned on never marrying. But a large bequest to be given on his wedding day makes him decide otherwise. He sets his mind to winning Miss Buttery-Clements, who can match him for size, but his heart has decided on another&mdash;the fascinating and delicate Miss Ellison.<br />The two decide to be just friends, setting aside the advice of their friend and astrological scholar Lady Preston, but the stars&mdash;or is it destiny? &mdash;will ensure this is a match made in the heavens.
