In a moment of recklessness, Gervase Tregarth, sixth Earl of Crowhurst, swears hell marry the next eligible lady to cross his path. Cloistered at his ancestral castle in Cornwall, with nary a suitable woman for miles, he never expects hell have to fulfill his pledge, at least not until the London season begins. But then he meets his neighbor, the very appealing Madeline Gascoigne.
Years of secret service to the Crown have taught Gervase the value of always having a loopholethere will be no wedding if he and Madeline are not compatible in every way.

From their very first kiss, Gervase discovers that the headstrong and independent Madeline is no meek country missand that the fire between them will burn long beyond that first seduction.
