Ysabel, a spoiled beauty, leaves southern France with Guy Gisborne, her father's steward, to return to her home in England.  Guy has lost his ancestral home because his father joined the Knights Templar.  The Templars threw Guy and his mother off the estate.  Guy wants nothing more than to regain the power and wealth he lost.  On the journey home, Guy slowly discloses to Ysabel that her home is suffering the same fate as his did because her father is gambling away his money and estate, grieving over the death of his wife, Ysabel's mother.  Ysabel and Guy are deeply attracted to each other, but also at loggerheads because of misconceptions and misunderstandings.  Almost half the book is about this trip back to England.  The rest takes place after Ysabel arrives back at her home Moncrieff.
