Publisher's Synopsis
Country bred Lucy Craddock-Hayes is content with her quiet life, until the day she trips over an unconscious man - a naked unconscious man - and loses her innocence forever. Viscount Simon Iddesleigh was nearly beaten to death by his enemies. Now he's hell-bent on vengeance, but as Lucy nurses him back to health, her honesty startles his jaded sensibilities, even as it ignites a desire that threatens to consume them both. Lucy is charmed by Simon's sly wit, urbane manners, and even his red-heeled shoes, yet as his honour keeps him from ravishing her, his revenge sends his attackers to her door.
