Lord Nathaniel knew the score with the ladies. A kiss in the dark, a necklace to the lover, and a house for the mistress would suffice. He needed no other entanglements and the cluster of emotions that came with involving himself with a romantic.
Yet, when the mysterious black-haired olive-skinned lady prances into the ballroom he finds no reason to let go.
