Lady Cynthia Lonsdale, young, newly widowed, and fabulously wealthy, was the ideal prey for every fortune hunter in the realm.

She chose Captain Brian Sheffield, a handsome young man with honorable qualities, to be her husband for hire. But when this desperate gentleman agreed to marry her for funds, Cynthia discovered that there was more to the deal than money. She found herself drawn to the Captain's icy pride and her own hot-blooded desire, leading to a tumultuous marriage that challenged the boundaries of their respective worlds.
