Dancing at Midnight/Julia Quinn/375 pgs.

Lady Arabella Blydon has been on the "marriage mart" for awhile, and is a bit of a "bluestocking." She has beauty, and money, but wants to marry for love. She meets Lord John Blackwood, a tortured soul, and is, of course, immediately attracted to him. The feeling is mutual, but there is something in his past that makes him think he isn't good enough for her. This is one of Julia Quinn's earliest novels, and it shows. It's an o.k. read, but not one of her best.
