Yet however much he feels drawn to her joie de vivre, duty and honor demand that he stay far away from Miss Stanton.... and desireDubbed "e;the Giantess"e; because of her unfortunate height, Charlie Stanton finds the London season far less glamorous than she had thought it would be - not the least because she is consigned a place among the wallflowers.

Ever ready to help others, Charlie is determined to rid him of his Sad Melancholia - even if it means taking on wild boars and highwaymen.
