If you were a literary agent...?

Would you want to read my novel based on this query:

Alice Edwards was only eleven years old when Lord Hawkins found her living on the streets of England. Destitute and bedraggled, the girl is saved from a hopeless situation when the baron decides to make her his ward.

Several years later, Alice readies her for the inevitable husband hunt. As a baron’s ward, and having hidden her past, Alice is sought after my several young beaux. But what secrets from her old life could come back to haunt her? And why has Lord Hawkins, a bachelor himself, failed to see what’s been under his nose for nearly a decade?

PRIDE AND PENNILESS, my 90,000-word historical romance, is a novel about enduring love, social rigidity, and finding one’s sense of worth. I have also completed another manuscript, SENSELESS SENSIBILITIES; both are throwbacks to the similarly-titled novels of Jane Austen. Should you be interested, a complete or partial manuscript is available upon request.
If not, how can I improve it?

It sounds a lot like Pygmalion by George Bernard Shaw (or you might know it better as the movie My Fair Lady).
