What this book is about

Annabelle Peyton is out of options: no money, no prospects, no more seasons. When she and three other wallflowers join forces, her target is the wealthy Simon Hunt—who wants her, but not on her terms. Secrets of a Summer Night launches the Wallflowers series with sharp social comedy, simmering attraction, and Kleypas's characteristic warmth.
