Narrado por: Virtual Voice

In the tradition of Georgette Heyer and Jane Austen, THE UPPITY EARL: A Clean, Sweet, Regency by Marilyn Clay is set in London. Miss Tessa Darby was born in England but grew up in American. She has now returned to England to escape her cruel stepfather.

Harrison Belmour, the fifth Earl of Penwyck is having the devil of a time controlling the deplorable behavior of his mother’s houseguest, the auburn-haired, spectacle-making young lady from America. The stubborn chit refuses to take direction and the last thing the aristocratic Belmour family needs is another scandal! Still, the earl has to admit there is something refreshingly tantalizing about a beautiful woman who is both principled and intelligent. But, he refuses to believe he is falling in love with the willful young lady, even if he continues to reflect on what a perfect countess she would make! (Note: The Uppity Earl was previously released in print and ebook as Miss Darby's Debut and also in ebook as The Hyde Park Spectacle.)
