In 1785 England, Logan Sandhurst, Viscount Edgewood, is hailed as London's warrior for women's rights. Patron for the abused. Champion for the oppressed and forgotten of society.

Lady Hannah Aldridge believes her life is about to turn around for the better the day her parents announced her betrothal to the saintly viscount. But her first meeting with Logan reveals the man she admires from afar might not be the hero he's portrayed to be. Secrets of murder and stolen children whisper to her from dark corners.

Lord Thomas Bryant, Earl of Pembroke, has spent the last two years searching for his missing son. He finds Lady Hannah instead and holds her for ransom in a desperate attempt to draw out Lord Edgewood.

The ruse works only too well, and Hannah discovers there is more to the grieving father than she ever dreamed possible and that Logan is hiding a secret which could destroy any chance she has for a family of her own.
