Miss Tessa Darby was born in England but grew up in American. She has now returned to England to escape her cruel stepfather and to try to reform the child labor laws of her birth country. Harrison Belmour, the fifth Earl of Penwyck is the very sort of influential gentleman Tessa wishes to impress with her plea. But a more uppity and self-righteous gentleman she has never met! Harrison Belmour is having the devil of a time controlling the deplorable behavior of his mother’s house guest, 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 as Miss Darby's Debut by Zebra Books, and is also in ebook as The Hyde Park Spectacle. “Another unusual plot from the talented pen of Marilyn Clay!
