Ten Reasons to Stay

In Ten Reasons to Stay, previously published in the anthology The School for Heiresses, lessons go far beyond etiquette and needlepoint. Eliza Crenshawes lesson is to look before she leaps. But when she discovers that her new guardian plans to marry her off without so much as a Season, she forgets all that. She fleeson a horse she unwittingly steals (oops!)from Colin Hunt, a newly minted earl who wants nothing more than for her to go homeor stay forever.
