Arabella, daughter of an impoverished country parson, dreams of a new life in London. But her beauty and charm will only get her so far - and when she embarks on her first London season armed with nothing but a benevolent godmother, she quickly runs afoul of Robert Beaumaris. He's the most eligible bachelor of the day, with a personality as strong and combative as hers. Arabella cannot abide him thinking of her as just another pretty girl after his wealth, so she allows herself to be provoked into a game of deception - one that could have unexpected consequences.
