Madelaine, ever-sympathetic to the travails of love, helps Clare get to the Continent to find Winston. Only there's a stunning young woman dancing with him at the ball, and Clare's certain that an impoverished 'country mouse' can't hold a candle to the wealthy and beautiful Lucy Williams, who just happens to be the daughter of a Count. It looks like Clare is going to have to either fight for love, or walk away from Winston and everything they could have together, that is--if they're brave enough to risk everything and weather the scandal that's sure to ensue.
