Isabella Ruth-Ann Wilton, heiress to the Wilton Estates and Manors and semi-citizen of Britain and the British West Indies: belonged in a quite peculiar predicament. Her father just might be dead and without his protection, she just might have to flee everything she's ever known in the Western Isle and take refuge in the cutthroat, 1820, English society. Duke William Cavendish, The 6th Duke of Devonshire, is the fully British sire of one of the oldest, most powerful duchies in all of England. With this power, comes great responsibility. And with great responsibility comes a generally unbearable gentleman of a Duke. In Bella's time of trouble, she is sent to live with the cold, chilling and calculating Duke as per her father's orders. However, when these two personalities collide in a flurry of sexual attraction, sinful temptation with an unsolved mystery as to who leaked the evidence of treason against Lord Wilton and ultimately cause his death; will Lady Bella and Duke Cavendish succumb to the burning magnetism that consumes them both, or will Lady Bella allow society to dictate exactly what a woman of her colour should and should naught do? In a world where love and race are challenged by each other; and sexual attraction does not always lead to affection, will the odds be in one's favour or will one leave England with a broken heart?
