The Marquess and the Wallflower by Tiffany Baton
“I love you not in spite of your imperfections, but because of them.”
The Bolton family has a tradition, kept for generations: they make dashing children, and they marry for love. Lady Emily, however, fears she will be the first to break both of these traditions. Very insecure in her appearance, and with the only man she is interested in not looking to get married, this season might prove to be nothing short of disastrous…
Lord Aaron’s idea of family and love shattered completely the day his betrothed chose his own brother over him. He is certain he will never love again. Until he crosses paths with an insecure wallflower, and finds himself drawn to her. Too bad that their newfound happiness is hanging by a thread, and sabotage is just a breath away…

It feels like the book is written by a 15 year old.
The book, The Marquess and the Wallflower was about Lady Emily Bolton, the younger daughter of Lord Archibald Bolton, the Earl of Dowding, and Lord Aaron Forbes, the Marquess of Tattershall, eldest son and heir apparent to the Duke of Parson. Emily, believing herself to be the ugly duckling of the family, was not excited to attend the debut ball that her family decided to hold for her. In fact, she did everything she could to hide from them in order to keep from attending. Unable to avoid it though, her father introduced her to the crowded ballroom. Julia, her sister-in-law, dragged her across the ballroom to introduce her to Aaron, who also did not want to be in attendance. Having recently been rejected by the woman he believed would be his wife, but she instead chose his brother, Aaron was having difficulty attending any event at which his brother and his betrothed might put in an appearance. However, upon meeting Emily, and her family, Aaron found himself starting to enjoy life again. After having attended several events where she ended up in the company of Aaron, Emily received an anonymous message warning her away from Lord Tattershall. The more time the two spent together, the more odd things began to happen to Emily. When Emily and Aaron started courting, the threats got worse and Emily ended up sharing them with Aaron, who was quite appalled at the thought that someone was out to not only separate them but to hurt Emily as well. There were a great many mistakes made in this book. Some of them were grammatical, while others were the switching of names of the characters. Sometimes the author addressed Lord Tattershall with the name of Lord Bolton, two different characters, and sometimes they were addressed quite improperly. It made for a difficult read. Even though there were so many errors, the storyline was well-written and there was enough drama and angst to keep the reader glued to the pages. The twists and turns of the book were enough to hold on to the reader's interest, and the plethora of other emotions of the story filled the pages to overflowing. The characters were well-developed and mature, each with the integrity most such stories lack. There were few secrets, none between the two main characters, which is rare in most novels. While it was easy to figure out who the villain(ness) might be, the motive(s) were quite interesting when finally revealed. This was definitely worthy of a five-star rating which, given the errors throughout the book, made for an interesting outcome. It also earned a place with the Keeper for the Shelves collection.
