Cordelia Bentham agrees to marry Sir Cyril Montgomery, providing he settles her father's debts. She doubts her decision the minute she sets eyes on Sir Cyril - a fat, cruel and drunken dolt who has no intention of making good on his promises to her father, but every intention of anticipating his wedding vows.
Cordelia finds an unlikely ally in Sir Cyril's cousin, Lord Angus Dryden. They join forces to discover the truth behind Sir Cyril's latest suspicious investment scheme, and struggle to ignore the growing attraction that springs up between them. Shocked by revelations that threaten Cordelia's life, can Angus find an honourable way to rescue her from a dangerous mesalliance before Sir Cyril attempts to cover his tracks by violent and deadly means...
