Nicholas, Lord Huntington returns home from the Napoleonic wars wounded and in need of care. He's not certain of his place in life, but he knows two things: He never will accept his duty as his father's heir, nor will he marry.

Charlotte Kittridge is the whip-smart physician's daughter caring for Nicholas' dying father. As she tends Nicholas through his recovery, she intrigues him with her forthright nature, even as she infuriates him with her belief in the strength of his character.

Sophia Nash embraces the well-loved Regency theme of "spinster nursing aristocratic war hero" and imbues it with a sophistication of language and dynamism of emotion rarely seen in the sub-genre.
