Mrs Budley falls from grace

the long version

Cut off by her relations, pretty dainty widow Eliza Budley must visit some other family manor to purloin expensive baubles. Happily, the Marquess of Peterhouse is in his dotage and wouldn't know a relative from a bedpost, so Eliza is sent to play the imposter. But Eliza is met by the new Marquess - wickedly handsome and with all his wits about him. Somehow Eliza finds herself confessing her bluff to him and he in turn is much taken with her daring and charm - but can he fall in love with such a scheming widow? Time for the other poor relations to help these confused lovers!
