The seducer in velvet

It was a cheerful bet, concluded between Leoni Nuaro, a young owner of a fashionable workshop, dressing ladies from the Higher Society of London, and an impeccable Simon Blair, Marquis Lisburn. Under the terms of this bet, Leoni had to prove that new outfits were able to turn the cousin of Simon, an ugly Gladys Ferfax, into an attractive person who does not know the end of fans. Well, the picture of the work of Botticelli himself served ...
Leoni did not suspect that the whole story with the bet is only a cunning plan for seduction, conceived by Simon from the very first minute, as he saw a charming modest at an exhibition of painting. It"s not about the cousin and not in the picture - the Marquis simply wants to spend as much time as possible with it
