Leia Edmond was born to be a wallflower; she was too independent and her features were too bold to catch a good husband, she never thought it a problem though; content with being a spinster.

And when Leia puts herself into unknown jeopardy, Dalting is there to clean up the mess, and, ultimately, protect her. But soon enough, more trouble arises, and circumstances run afoul. For once, Dalting isn't completely sure that serving is enough for him - but is he too late? Can he tame her adventurous, male-repelling nature into being satisfied with him forever?
