Black Sheep
Synopsis
Abigail Wendover is a sought-after young woman, but none of her suitors capture her heart. Her attention is diverted when her naive niece, Fanny, falls for the notorious town-beau, Stacy Calverleigh. Determined to protect Fanny from a fortune-hunter, Abigail finds an unexpected, if unconventional, ally in Stacy's uncle, Miles Calverleigh. Miles, the 'black sheep' of his family, challenges Abigail's sensibilities, yet his charm and wit prove irresistibly disarming.
