Wealthy, handsome, and devastatingly charming, the
expatriate Viscount Hathaway Wycoff could easily win most
women's affections. But the lovely Lucy Stone isn't most
women. Though the self-respecting beauty is drawn to him,
she refuses to give in to passion. Once before Lucy had
followed her heart—a journey that took her to America and
left her there a penniless young widow and mother.
A rich relative unexpectedly offers Lucy and her son
passage back to England, answering her longtime prayer.
She doesn't want to leave Wycoff, but given his scandalous
reputation, it seems the right choice. Wycoff promises he
will change to win her, but Lucy cannot allow herself to
believe him. When a devious plot threatens all Lucy holds
dear, she must turn to the man she's vowed not to trust.
Neither knows what final destination fate has in store—but
they are willing to risk everything to find out.
