Jasper cannot turn this woman away, but he is already bethroted to be married to someone else. He is determined to see if this union his brother made on his behalf is legal in the meantime what his is to do with his "wife" The plot is simple enough, but in a tragic twist the other woman who Jasper was engaged to got caught up with the evil Village Squire..... All in all it was a very enjoyable read, some parts were a little to dark for my taste but fortunately it doesn't take too much away from the love story to ruin it.
