The Marquis of Milverton strides into White’s Club in a high state of irritation as he is being pestered by his family to take a ‘suitable’ girl for his wife. He is not surprised to find that his aristocratic friends are suffering the same pressure and they
gather together to complain about their plight.
They are all having affaires-de-coeurs with seductive married ladies and the Marquis himself is very much involved with a glamorous Countess. However they all recognise that they will have to marry eventually to carry on their ancestral titles
and family legacy. Listening to their grumbling is the Duke of Sandelford and he challenges them to go out into the countryside in disguise and find a beautiful girl to be their dream wife.
If after three months, they failed they were to admit failure and accept their family’s suggestions. He also offers a one thousand pounds prize to those who succeed. He left them feeling it was at least a sporting chance and the Marquis was the first to accept the Duke’s challenge.
Disguising himself as John Milton he sets out alone on his horse and has a number of unlikely adventures with people he would normally have never encountered. He helps some of them to happiness, then becomes bored and decides to return
home, but will give one more village a last chance. How the Marquis becomes involved with a ruthless gang of horse thieves and then unexpectedly finds all he is seeking and can claim the Duke’s prize is told in this exciting and different tale by BARBARA CARTLAND.

I disagree with the prior review by Helen Byrne...I am a long time fan of Dame Cartland. Her books were some of the very first books I ever read.Sometimes, if you grow up with an author, you will want to revisit her books again and again....and that's what I am doing. It's been a long time since I held her books in my hands; are the stories cheesy, you bet! Are the heroines/heros simplistic? Yes again! Then why read these books? Because even though I've "grown up" in my reading, I like to visit old friends. It's very comforting to know every story will have a happy ending. Boy gets girl; love rules. Come on! It's like a hug. And at the Kindle price, I can afford to revisit this old friend!
I hope this review helps you decide.

For a Barbara Cartland novel, I did not find this very interesting. It seemed to wander aimlessly and the heroine simply fell into the hero's arms with virtually no conflict at all. Maybe Barbara left some novels unpublished because she decided that they did not work out successfully.
