As everyone knows, Viscount Fielding has three daughters.
The eldest, Charlotte, is dazzlingly beautiful and famous far and wide for her looks.
The second, Veronica, is a talented young lady, skilled in manners, poetry, dancing, embroidery, and Latin.
The third daughter is named Daisy.
Oh, why not say a little about her?
Well, no one has ever heard of this young lady doing anything especially noteworthy. Presumably she's quite ordinary, with nothing worth praising.
Daisy, who's pretending she hasn't rescued anyone, made money, found a big brother, or latched onto anyone powerful: You're right.

Dai, who acts like a fool on the surface but secretly thinks, "That's just like me," West has spent over a decade eating and drinking at home, only to suddenly realize she's about to reach a dead end in life.
She has three choices:
1. Marry her older sister's fiancé, whose family has fallen into ruin and who has lost his mind.
2. Let her father and brother decide her fate and become an old duke's second wife.
3. Run away from home with no money or possessions and end up on the streets.
Daisy: Help! How do I protect my little stash of money from my coldhearted, unreasonable family, so they don't find it and take it? Asking online. It's urgent.
Leonard: There's one way.
Daisy: ?
Leonard: Marry me.
