description: Camilla Forest has fallen upon hard times since fleeing France and the tyrannical rule of Napoleon Bonaparte. When her job as a governess ends in disaster Camilla finds herself penniless and alone stranded on a muddy roadside. A chance encounter with the notoriously aloof Lord Leominster presents Camilla with an unexpected solution to her dire situation: an offer of marriage. Destitute and without prospects Camilla is ready to dismiss romantic ideals in order to secure her future. But why does Leominster openly dismissive of women generally and Camilla in particular want to marry her? Camilla grudgingly accepts and a loveless deal is struck. But what exactly has she agreed to? As the conflict in Europe escalates and Napoleons reach spreads Leominster is sent to Portugal forcing Camilla to follow. As everything Camilla once knew is turned upside down again she tries to navigate this new world of violence and fear. But soon Camilla finds herself falling in love with the man she thought she never could. With war edging ever closer will Camilla be able to find happiness before its too late?
