Naomi Bankes is a young woman who has suffered a double tragedy, losing both parents in a carriage accident. Discovering her mother was the daughter of an earl is a shock and neither her guardian or Naomi herself knows how to deal with their new relationship. Out of desperation, her uncle sends her to an old family friend in Suffolk where Naomi comes to terms with her parents’ death. Henrietta Cosgrove is an elderly lady who is far from frail. She has a sharp wit and little tolerance for fools. When a young woman comes to stay with Henrietta and her friend Miriam Gordon, the two women cannot help but like her. Charged with teaching Naomi how to behave in the presence of The Ton, they prepare her for her first season in London. When Naomi returns to London for the season, she again encounters Gilroy Mackensie. Although he is handsome and wealthy and a prime catch, their previous meetings did not go well and Naomi does not know how to deal with him, and although she is polite, he is the last man she desires for a husband.
Gilroy Mackensie is handsome and wealthy and can have any woman he wishes. So why can he not get Naomi Bankes, a young woman who he finds rude and obnoxious, out of his mind? Never one for attending balls, he cannot help but put in an appearance when his cousin, Calder Mackensie, a man he has been estranged from for years, shows an interest in Naomi Bankes. For whatever reason, Gilroy is not certain, he is determined his cousin will not marry Naomi Bankes but at what price.
