Raised by a stern and cold father, the charming, cultured, and impetuous Whitney Stone isn't afraid to speak her mind or break the rigid standards of conduct expected of a young lady in 19th-century English society. Especially when it comes to the handsome Paul, whose heart she's determined to win. Whitney will stop at nothing to get his attention, even if it means being the butt of gossip and ridicule in the small village where she lives.

And under their care, dedication, and love, she transforms into a sophisticated and beautiful woman, becoming the talk of the glittering Parisian society.

Clayton knows what he wants and is willing to face any obstacles to win her over. But even when the Duke's power of seduction envelops her, Whitney doesn't give up her dream of true love.
