Spotted Lily

Angela Pendergast, escapee from the Australian bush, grew up with the smell of hot mutton fat in her hair, the thought of her teeth crunching a cold Tim Tam chocolate biscuit-the height of decadent frivolity. Now, though her tastes have grown and she knows absolutely what she wants, her life is embarrassingly stuck.

He’s got only a Hell’s week to fulfil his side, but in the meantime he must chaperone her-or is it the other way around?
