Publisher's Synopsis
Gordon Treadwell thought himself too long in the tooth to get mixed up in a a social disaster of epic proportions. In his cups, he makes a preposterous wager, which his stickler father decrees must be honored. The problem is that it involves a prickly and headstrong spinster sitting on a possible scandal of her own. Oil and water, flame and grease, no matter how you describe this pair, things are aboutto explode."This book was a romp to read. I couldn't turn the pages fast enough...Julia Donner's wicked humor at its best." Judith Post, author of Fallen Angels
