Philip Marrow, Lord Brasleigh, has no choice -- he must force a lady to marry. He needs to get his troublesome ward, Miss Bella Lowe, off his hands. Finding a willing groom is no problem, but finding Bella is! The disobedient chit -- actually a delightful young miss determined to marry for love -- has run away to escape the match. Now an exasperated Philip is tracking her down to show her what happens to a foolish woman on her own. Since he has never met Miss Lowe, he plans to play the role of rogue and scare her back to London. Yet he never expects to ignite a passion he can't control...or find a lady who fights fire with a clever scheme all her own....
