Publisher's Synopsis
`I am happy to be able to tell as many of you as I can that I have not the smallest wish to marry any of you!' The three great-nephews of cantankerous Mr. Penicuik know better than to ignore his summons, especially when it concerns the bestowal of his fortune. The wily old gentleman has hatched a typically freakish plan for his stepdaughter`s future and his own amusement: his fortune will be Kitty`s dowry. But while the beaux are scrambling for her hand, Kitty counters with her own inventive, if daring, scheme: a sham engagement should keep the wedlock at bay . . .
