Wagging tongues of society declared that there was no woman, married or single, that the notorious Max Talgarth could not conquer with his arrogant good looks and devastating charm. It was common knowledge as well that there was no gentleman that Sir Max could not best on the dueling field with either his pistol or his sword.

Cupid's arrow--slipping through her armor and into her heart.
