Lady Helena Grant is about to become homeless. The moment her father dieswhich will be within the month according to the doctorher home will go to his heir, the Baron Hazelton. He has refused her plea to allow her to stay in the house. Now the only hope this bookish wallflower has is to apply to his son, the handsome Mr. Teviot, and pray that he has some sway over his father.
What they don't count on is the spark of attraction between them. It will take the delicate hand of the Ladies' Wagering Whist Society to gently encourage those flames to grow.
