As a close friend of the Middletons, Jonas Edgar and his fiancee are spending a period of time on the estate before their marriage. Jonas's hesitation toward his marriage only strengthens as he becomes utterly smitten with an astonishingly beautiful maid.

Jonas and Katherine try to deny their affections, but the battle worsens with each day. As they grow closer, their dream future gets farther.
