The Devil's Daughter
Harriet confronts the aristocratic Marquis of Capel about his duties towards his three young wards, and his obvious neglect. However, her timing could not be worse, resulting in the Marquis being terribly wounded. As Harriet takes care of him and hopes that she will finally win over his affections, she comes up with a clever plan – to win him over once and for all. The memorable love tale written by Marguerite Bell, a pseudonym of romance writer Ida Pollock, dates back to the 20th century. A must-read for fans of literary romance and surprising twists of fate.-

this was the first masquerade book i ever read and i didn't remember it all. i have now reread it.
the beginning was good but in the end i just didn't enjoy. i felt the hero and heroine didn't spend enough time together.
