Spain, 18 century. Sebastian, Count of Belalcazar, is convicted of murder, and Mirabela, daughter of a duke, would do anything to have this killer in her bed. Obsessed and passionate, she promises Sebastian to obtain his death penalty pardon. All he has to do is marry her... things get complicated when Aurora, Countess of Bailen, who has sworn never to marry, arrives through an irony of fate in a brothel in danger of being raped. In doing his duty as a gentleman and saving her, Sebastian is convinced that things will end here... until he finds out that this lonely and inexperienced girl, in a desperate attempt to escape an unwanted marriage, is determined to cross the border with France by herself.
