England, 1818. Harold (Harry) Morant's tough exterior hides his wounded heart. Returning home after eight years of war, Harry decides to enter into a practical marriage, guided by reason rather than feelings. But a sudden passion for an unfamiliar lady threatens to disrupt his carefully worked out plan. A life full of lies has led Lady Helen (Nell) Freymore to the very edge of the social abyss. Forced into a marriage she never imagined, Nell soon finds herself developing a strong attachment to her husband, this deceptively calm soldier... and increasingly worried about how he will react when he reveals himself. her secret.
