Letters. Miss Helen Crawford had written them to express her adolescent adoration of her brother’s friend, Mr. Benjamin Hargrave. She’d written them to purge her longing, to ease her emotions, so that she would be able to face him without appearing a fool. She had not written them for him to read. And yet, he did. Somehow. And worse, he’d shared them with the ton. Her first Season was ruined. She was mocked, ridiculed, branded a wallflower and left to fade into the background. Until now. Now she was ready to dazzle them all. To show them what they’d been missing. And then she would reject them all, as they had done to her. It was going swimmingly. Until someone began to write letters to her. And if she didn’t stop it, they were going to ruin everything.

They call them the Weatherby Wallflowers… After her mother’s death, Eleanor Weatherby has had a hard enough time shepherding her three younger sisters through the world and running her father’s household on a shoestring budget. But now her father, an eccentric naturalist who has always shown more interest in birds and beetles than his own flesh and blood, has sold their home so he could afford passage on an exploratory voyage around the world! Suddenly the four sisters dubbed the Weatherby Wallflowers don’t even have a roof over their heads. Their only chance… Eleanor somehow manages to secure an invitation to the Countess of Milthorpe’s house party, which buys them two weeks of shelter. Eleanor is firmly on the shelf, but her youngest sister, Philippa, manages to catch the eye of Felix St. James, younger brother of the Duke of Norwood. If Pippa can bring Felix up to scratch, it will draw them back from the brink of destitution. The man standing in their way… There’s only one problem—Jasper St. James, the Duke of Norwood. He immediately marked Pippa as an upstart miss who was only after his brother’s fortune. Jasper vows that he won’t let Felix out of his sight. But at every turn he is foiled by Eleanor Weatherby, who seems as determined to promote the match as Jasper is to prevent it. As Jasper and Eleanor match wits, he discovers that she is impertinent, imperious… and impossible to resist. It turns out that sparring with a headstrong wallflower is more to this stern duke’s taste than the milquetoast maidens he was considering for his bride at the start of the house party. Maybe one of the Weatherby Wallflowers will be marrying into the St. James family after all… if Jasper hasn’t already ruined everything. A Wallflower Never Surrenders is a steamy, comedic Regency Romance that will appeal to fans of Tessa Dare, Melanie Rose Clarke, and Callie Hutton. It is Book 19 in the multi-author series Revenge of the Wallflowers and also Book 1 in The Weatherby Wallflowers Quartet. Look for Clarissa Weatherby’s story, Snowbound with the Scoundrel, in November 2024!
