The Leopard Prince

Legally Blonde meets Cinderella in this role reversal of a ditzy heiress who's against marriage - but who desperately wants an affair.

It is a universal truth that a woman - especially an heiress - must be in desperate need of a man to marry. Lady Georgina Maitland is the exception. For her, spinsterhood has been quite pleasant, with a steady inheritance, a manor of her very own, and, of course, her independence. But to run a manor, she needs a steward. Everyone knows that servants have no gender - and really a land steward is just a superior sort of servant.

It's just that Harry Pye, her new steward, is a man. A very nice looking man. And not sexless at all. In fact, it would have to be just the opposite. And can she help that the man has beautiful eyes and such nice hands? The only trouble is that everyone in the area is convinced that Harry is a killer - of sheep. It's just plain impossible to have a discreet affair when things keep getting in the way. With the farmer's livelihood being poisoned, the neighbouring landowner waiting to hang Harry, and three brothers on the warpath, its all Georgina can do to keep her head above water - and Harry's out of the noose.

There is some debate on whether a golden hamster resides with her as well. The hamster was a free-thinking rodent and decided to live sans cage sometime in the summer of '05. It has not been reliably spotted since, although Liz's youngest child holds out hopes of its return. The hermit crabs are best not mentioned at all. She is currently at work on the last book in the trilogy. Her website is
