Years earlier, a gypsy woman passed to Lady Aldora Adamson

Lady Aldora doesn't have time for mythical stories about

marrying a titled gentleman with wealth and power to his
name. She sets her bespectacled sights upon the Marquess of
St. James.
Turned out by his father after a tragic scandal, Lord
Michael Knightly has grown into a powerful, but self-made
man. With the whispers and stares that still follow him, he
would rather be anywhere but London...
Until he meets Lady Aldora, a young woman who mistakes him
for his brother, the Marquess of St. James. The connection
between Aldora and Michael is immediate and as they come to
know one another, Aldora's feelings for Michael war with her
sisterly responsibilities. With her family's dire situation,
a man of Michael's scandalous past wlll never do.
Ultimatley, Aldora must choose between her responsibilities
as a sister and her love for Michael.
