description: Christian Kendall, the Marquess of Blackthorn wishes he didn't have any responsibilities. If  his family didn't depend on him he'd have been able to travel like his brother Nicholas. With Nicholas away he feels a little lost and uncertain for the first time in his life. Lady Scarlett Lynwood is lost. Not in the physical sense, but the emotional way. She wants to explore the world and discover hidden treasures. She has no place in her life for love. She wants to be brave like her mother. Unfortunately, that is not something she can ever be. She has to be the proper lady and attend the season. What her parents do not understand is she'll never be proper or ladylike. She has a wild spirit that will not be tamed.Christian and Scarlett have a past neither wishes to speak of or remember. As they cross paths they are forced to relive it all, and finally put it to rest. They must finally admit the truth...when it's the last thing either wants. They are drawn to each other, and they have to ask themselves if they can find a way past their differences, and allow love to blossom between them.
