Lady Arabella Lucia Fairborne has no need for a husband. She has a fine inheritance for the taking, a perfectly capable mind, and a resolve as tough as nails. But what she doesn't have is the freedom to defy her cousin's will - and his will is to see her married immediately to the husband of his choosing. So is it any wonder that she dresses herself as a scullery maid and bolts into the night?

Lady Emmeline Hartley has overcome every obstacle life has thrown her way. A spinster, disappointed in love, Em is on the brink of a marriage of convenience, when the man who rejected her heart reappears in need of her help. It gives Em a chance to escape, put to use her most unusual talents, and perhaps convince him once and for all to risk his heart. Adam Montclair - one of the most successful agents at the Home Office - rubs elbows with the highest levels of society. Even so, he wasn’t to the manor born. No matter how much he desires Em, he is completely unsuitable.
