lord Andrew Framlington watched Miss Mary Marlow. The woman had been warned to keep away from him, but she had a little contrary in her soul. She had not been deterred.

But attraction between two people cannot be ignored. Despite all of the warnings from her family, Mary's heart was ruling her head. Would Mary live to regret her involvement with Drew? Could he ever be trusted?
