But when her pretty cousin runs off with a charlatan, it falls to Clementine to fulfill her grandfather’s wish and marry into English nobility. Loyal to a fault, she agrees to leave California for dreary England, where she will marry a man she’s never met.On a sleepless night in London, Clementine is drawn to a nearby garden by the sound of a fountain—only to rescues a handsome stranger from drowning in it.

The Earl has a reputation for being a man of mystery, and he is less than forthcoming about what led to his strange and perilous predicament.
