An exuberant greeting and a mistaken identity set sparks flying between Lady Phoebe Lippincott and Baron Marcus Summerfield. The duke surprises him by offering his London town house for the baron to use in his search for a bride among this Season's crop of debutantes. The baron accepts and leaves before he can be further entranced by the duke's engaging, curvaceous, dark-haired, blue-eyed sister. Phoebe has been slowly emerging from the shell she has been hiding in since a madman held her at knifepoint at her brother's first ball. After meeting Baron Summerfield, Phoebe's interest ignites. There is only one problem—the baron will be staying at her brother's town house! When it is the baron who is kidnapped, Phoebe's the one to receive the ransom note and rushes to the rescue! When the Pinks who seek revenge against the baron, and the duke, try another kidnapping attempt, and have Phoebe's carriage surrounded, the baron has to listen to his heart. Will Marcus be able to give up his overwhelming need for monetary gain and prestige among his peers in exchange for Phoebe's hand in marriage? Will Phoebe completely emerge from her shell to trust her heart to Marcus? Contains mature themes.
