Newly -- and happily -- widowed, Lady Sarah Lacey is lured home under the guise of her mother's illness so that her parents may take over the handling of her money. They even have a wealthy new husband picked out.

But after a brief but hellish first marriage, Sarah is determined never to marry again -- until her still-burning girlhood attraction to Evan Lancaster pushes thoughts of merry widowhood from her mind.

His appeal is disturbing -- for her parents, outraged at their daughter's infatuation with a lowly farmer -- and for Sarah herself, who must prove to this reluctant Romeo that neither class nor station can thwart love's true intentions.
