Lady Florence had never been to England. Adopted by her parents in the small countryside she wondered to herself how the glamour of London would make her feel. She was just waiting for her 19th birthday to make its way through so she could come out for her own season. 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.
