Mistress by Mistake England, 1816. Viscount Randolph Dashford isn—t a bad person; he—s simply pretending to be one to avoid matrimony. Heiress Evaline Pinchley isn—t usually a sotted wanton; she—s merely celebrating her birthday. One full moon and one empty Madeira bottle later, Evaline wakes to find herself in Dashford's bed! While Evaline tries to salvage what dignity she can from this colossal blunder, family secrets and would-be fiancés run rampant around her. Just when it seems she might find a way out of the mess she's made, Evaline realizes things are worse than imagined. She's lost her heart to Dashford, and that could be the biggest mistake of them all.
