Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. First Edition. Binding: Hardback ---Publisher: Hutchinson ---Date: 1987 ---Edition: 1st ---Pages: 132Description: All of the pages are unmarked, uncreased and tightly bound in red cloth boards with dust jacket in protective mylar. Delightfully illustrated by Peter ChapmanSometimes fairy tales can come true--even for plain, shy spinsters like Missy Wright. Neither as pretty as cousin Alicia nor as domineering as mother Drusilla, she seems doomed to a quiet life of near poverty at Missalonghi, her family's pitifully small homestead in Australia's Blue Mountains. But it's a brand new century--the twentieth--a time for new thoughts and bold new actions. And Missy Wright is about to set every self-righteous tongue in the town of Byron wagging. Because she has just set her sights on a mysterious, mistrusted, and unsuspecting stranger... who just might be Prince Charming in disguise.
