Lindsay Lennox, daughter of the governor of Turkey, worries she'll never have the chance to meet a man and fall in love. Being the youngest of eight daughters, it is customary for all of her sister's to marry before Lindsay can be out in society and even meet a man. Her twenty-fourth birthday is coming quickly, and she's running out of hope. Desperation takes hold and she disguises herself as a servant in order to slip through the palace gates. Distaster strikes when she meets a handsome sea captain and is mistakenly whisked across the sea to England. Lindsay knows her only hope of salvation will be to find her Whitton relatives in England and beg for help. Unfortunately, the devastating Captain Braxton proves more tempting than her lonely heart can resist.
