Miss Cheney's Charade

Proper Emma Cheney finds an invitation sent to her brother too fascinating to resist--a chance to see a mummy from exotic Egypt unwrapped. It is simply too enticing. She's longed for adventure, and surely this is the closest she'll get. Dressed in her absent brother's clothes, she boldly enters Sir Peter Dancy's home to attend the viewing, sure she can escape detection. Sir Peter immediately suspects the deception, but teases Emma into believing he doesn't see through her disguise. Emma plunges into a web of subterfuge while coping with the challenge of her charade. The danger of scandal threatens as her love for Sir Peter grows. Can Sir Peter succeed in convincing Emma she's the woman he loves?
