Has anyone in London ever takenpart in the coming-out season with less enthusiasmthan Sabrina? She is young, lovely, and possesses asparkling wit, yet she knows she is but a simpleorphaned country girlwhose grandfather justhappened to have been a noblemanand thereforefeels dreadfully out of place. Luckily Ophelia, thedaughter of a family friend, has been chosen to usherSabrina through the perils and pitfalls of this all-important first season.What better guide than thisterribly sophisticated blond beauty who is themost sought-after lady in the city?
Even less keen to be in London isDuncan MacTavish. Having lived twenty-onedeliriously contented years in the Scottish Highlands,he has recently learned he is the sole heir of anEnglish Marquis and is now required to assume hisgrandfather's title and estates. Worse still, a betrothalhas already been arranged without his consentto the ravishing, viper-tongued Ophelia'who hasbeen heard to make scathing statements in public about her Scottish barbarian groom-to-be.
Bad circumstance, however, can sometimes have distinctly pleasurable advantages'especially whenhis unwanted intended's sudden desire to repentbrings thedashing highlander into close proximitywith the enchanting Sabrina. Now this is a womanfor whom Duncan would willingly abandon hisbeloved Scotland: a kindred spirit whose wit delightshim...and whose essence is the exquisite stuff ofdreams. But duty and station forbid Sabrina's andDuncan's desired union. And a ecret dwells in thelady's past, and it threatens their romance. Under such adverse conditions a match that should be,a passion that must be, cannot possibly beunless true love can somehow, miraculously find a way.
