The Reluctant Debutante – Book One in the Cotillion Ball Series

The Reluctant Debutante
252 Pages
ISBN 1440551626

In 1855 New York, Ginger Fitzpatrick has absolutely no interest in taking part in the newest rage in America-the Cotillion Ball. Instead, Ginger would rather be rallying for women's rights-at least until she meets her brother's best friend from St. Louis.

Joseph Lafontaine is a dark mysterious man who ignites her passion and makes her question if love and marriage is such a ridiculous notion after all. What she and the rest of New York's high society don't realize is that Joseph is half Ojibwa Indian, and therefore, totally unsuitable for marriage to a fine, cultured young lady.

In this Edith Wharton-meets-Julia Quinn tale, a young woman rebels against high society and opts for a life in which she creates her own set of rules.
