A knight in distress.
 And a dark night in London.Maryann Hayes has set her sights on marrying Lord Hefferton, a kind, respectable gentleman, who promises to be the solution to her family’s financial problems. After her drunkard of an uncle gambled away the family’s fortune, debtors are now knocking on their door. The only solution is a respectable marriage to a wealthy man.

Admittedly, once upon a time, Maryann dreamed of love and passion, of the one man who would sweep her off her feet, see with one glance what lived in her heart and was willing to risk everything to win her hand.

Now, as a grown woman, Maryann is determined to face facts: love is nothing but a fairy-tale, and she better ought to forget those girlish dreams.

Leopold Lancaster, the future Marquess of Elmridge, finds himself rather intimidated by the title he is to inherit. Not only does the thought of losing his beloved father break his heart, but he also fears disappointing all those who depend upon him for their livelihood.In a dark moment, Leopold ends up drunk and rather unsteady upon his feet on the streets of London at night. He can barely see straight, let alone remember where he lives, when he stumbles upon an angel in disguise.

Rather heroically, the young lady comes to his rescue, and Leopold is surprised to find a kindred spirit as those bright blue eyes look into his. When they finally part ways, he is determined to seek her out, knowing he has to see her again.

Unfortunately, when he does, Leopold is forced to realize that the lady is already promised to wed another.
