Description

Diana Boyle, a wealthy young widow, has no desire to ever marry again. She's furious when she discovers that her name is listed in a directory of rich, single women - a publication that caters to men seeking wealthy partners. Confronting the directory's author, Maxwell Dean, Diana is shocked by his appearance and finds herself unmoved by his explanation for creating the list. The women in the directory are outraged, but they decide to take matters into their own hands. Gathering together to inform each other of the publication's existence, they devise a plan to outsmart fortune hunters who seek to trick them into marriage. By reversing the usual gender roles and taking control of their own lives, the ladies rewrite the rules. As the women work together, they challenge the traditional norms of Regency society and create a new order where they hold the power. With wit, intelligence, and determination, they take charge of their own destinies and forge a path that is uniquely their own.
