Chapter 1 Summary

Something Wonderful is a romantic love story about Alexandra Lawrence, a young girl living in the country, who takes care of her mother and elderly servants and was taught that everyone is inherently good, and Jordan Townsend, a jaded Duke, who believes all women are evil opportunists that just want to get the best of him. The two meet in an unexpected attack by two bandits, and when Jordan jeopardizes Alexandra's reputation in her village, he is coaxed into marrying her. The story is about how they deal with their forced marriage and how they learn to love each other along the way. Both of them learn a lot from each other; while Alexandra merely learns the artificial and superficial laws of society, Jordan learns truth, honesty and sincere love.
