The story features a h who has been beaten by her father for years and is told she is to marry a lout involved in the slave trade.  She runs away and meets up with the H who is also running away- from a misunderstanding involving his best friend, from his conniving mother, and the ton which seems to want to trap him into marriage.  Women are not to be trusted- the lot of them!She is obviously in need of a white knight on a horse (well, no knight, but there is a horse with an interesting personality at least).  He needs her a little less- after all, can't he just continue to tell his mama "no", or just stop attending balls?  Hardly an equal amount of misery to avoid.So, can two people who need each other learn to want each other, love each other?  Those are the questions haunting both the reader and the characters throughout this tale.  There are a few editing issues with this book.  It was transferred from a paperback format published in 1988 to its current Kindle format, and along the way, some mistakes occurred which were not caught.  Some letters are written as numbers, such as "1/4".  Confusing, but you can figure out which letter was intended.  Also, there are a few typos as well.  I have seen worse, hopefully these errors can be corrected in a future, updated edition.
