Lord Jonathon Brent had been party to the dreadful events which had surrounded his good friend, Simon Hatton, Duke of Granton, and Simon's wife India. Assisting Simon in his rescue of India on not one, but two occasions, had forged a bond between the friends that was unbreakable. Although not above teasing. What happened at Granton Park remained a secret between those who were present. It was there he first met, Lady Anna Crompton and fell totally in love with the said lady. He knew she returned his feelings, but she was to be betrothed to Lord Willingham. A betrothal she did not wish. All attempts to press his suit with Anna's father were rejected, and his attendance at the house was eventually refused. Why is Anna's father insistent upon the proposed betrothal? Does Willingham have a hold over him? And what is Lady Selina Alton's role in it all? Can he persuade Anna to defy her family?
