Determined to hunt down her very own hero, one who will sweep her off her feet and into wedded bliss, and despairing of finding him in London's staid ballrooms, Heather Cynster steps out of her safe world and boldly attends a racy soireé. But her promising hunt is ruined by the supremely interfering Viscount Breckenridge, who whisks her out of scandal, straight into danger. When a mysterious enemy seizes her, bundles her into a coach, and spirits her out of London, the notorious Breckenridge must prove he's the hero she's been searching for.
