description: A beautiful orphan girl resents the intrusion of a wealthy lord sent to protect her and her younger brother. After all, they could certainly look after themselves much better than any bachelor nobleman. Her fiercely independent nature is soon tamed by his charm and dashing good looks, wearing her defenses down until the only feeling that remains is her desire for him both in her body and soul...but can their love survive the possible scandal their passion will surely ignite?
