2: "How many baby clothes do you need to make?"
3: James Trevor, the Earl of Stafford, hadn't been to a ball in years.
4: "This pink is pretty," Emily said Monday at Grafton House...
5: "Where is Amanda?" Juliana said Wednesday afternoon in the drawing room.
6: "I really must be on my way, Aunt Aurelia."

10: While Amanda was off dancing with her fourth or fifth potential suitor...
11: Despite having persuaded her cousins to attend her party, Juliana...

13: Wondering what Juliana wanted of him, James led...
14: Before the duke left on Monday afternoon, he'd asked...

16: Juliana placed little mounds of dough on...
17: As James's carriage crawled toward the Egyptian Hall...

24: "I cannot believe you didn't tell me you'd talked to Lord Stafford," Amanda said...
25: James handed the hopeful young woman a pencil...
26: The Billingsgate ball was in full swing, and music...
27: "You're foxed," Juliana told James later as they danced.
28: The next morning dawned bright and sunny, which should have made Juliana feel...
29: Dark was falling.
30: James had finally kissed Juliana, and it had been better...
31: "It's the rheumatism, I fear," Lady Avonleigh said the next afternoon.
32: "Where's my aunt?" Juliana cried. "And Lord Malmsey?"
33: James's aunts were even better seamstresses than Rachael and her sisters.
34: As James was leaving that evening, Cornelia walked into Stafford House.
35: Juliana was scandalized. Absolutely, positively scandalized.
36: Lord Malmsey was the youngest man at the Pevensey residence.
37: For five days—ever since she'd come to his house and offered to volunteer...
38: On Saturday evening, Griffin watched Juliana scan the Teddington's ballroom.
39: Aunts Aurelia and Bedelia had been thrilled when James asked them...
40: After James left, Juliana returned to the ballroom, furious...
41: In his study at Stafford House the next day, James...
42: As Lady Hartley's guests followed the Wolverstons from the room...
43: The next day, Juliana paced around the drawing room...
44: Even with a flurry of activity, Juliana's afternoon...
45: "Why are you so sad, Lady Juliana?"
46: There were different ways of dealing with the blows life randomly chucked...
47: For two days, Juliana had done little but sew baby clothes...
48: James's eyes met Juliana's in understanding...
