The Homeless Heiress

Cindy is a sharp-witted homeless girl whose first meeting with Professor Henry starts badly when she pickpockets his wallet. Her fortunes change overnight when she is brought to her birth father, who names her the only heiress of the Perrault family and promises her hand to Edward, heir to the old-money Hartmans. To win the Hartmans' approval, Cindy must be polished into a refined lady, and Henry is assigned as her tutor, a pairing that brings friction and growing attraction. Meanwhile, her adopted sister Ana schemes to undo her at every turn, and Cindy must learn to outmaneuver each trap while Edward's affection deepens and her heart pulls toward Henry.
