Deception flames into interest whenever a lady's maid secretly can take her mistress' place in an arranged marriage. On a frigid March day in Yorkshire in 1895, 10-year-old Marissa Ayers encounters the raven-haired, blue-eyed stranger for the first time. When next they meet, she has escaped the particles of the coal mines and is currently a lady's maid at an excellent estate, determined to escape her hardscrabble life. She instantly identifies him, but does not have any inkling that their lives are about to come together in the most personal way - until her mistress begs her to have her place in a relationship of convenience. Haunted by the recollection of his lost love, Ian Tremayne is honor-bound by the guarantee he designed to an old friend. His marriage to Katherine Mary Ahearn will be a union in name only. Yet something about the proud, green-eyed Englishwoman seems familiar... and intrigues him. He can take her home to America, where the willful beauty gradually begins to thaw his guarded heart and soul.
