Lord Cardington has tasked James with finding Lucinda a suitable husband before his wedding to Emily. Its no surprise that her father wants her to marry and soon! But she never expected her sister’s dowry to hinge on her own marriage. Reading, taking up photography which her father shuns, and helping the fallen women wanting to better themselves at Caring House. Lucinda has no desire to ever marry and is happily intending to be a spinster living her life on her terms. There is only one thing James can do, be a stand-up guy, and marry the young Emily, knowing full well this whole ruse has been a trap. Both ladies are now facing a scandal that could ruin their reputations and bring shame to their family. But when the young Emily Cardington follows him one night to a place no respectable woman should ever go at night (let alone unchaperoned) just to find him, and her older sister follows to save her, they are discovered by a gossip column journalist who has no qualms about sharing it all. He has no desire to settle down, or to end his rakish ways. James Simpson enjoys his life doing as he pleases … and, who he pleases.
