Aspiring Member of Parliament, Simon Belleville knows he should take the pretty prostitute directly to Newgate Gaol. But one glimpse of Christine Tremayne's lovely, tear splashed face finds him faltering. Staring into her pleading amber eyes, he cannot subdue the sense that she is not at all what she seems. Though her expectations are limited by birth and circumstance, she demonstrates a keen mind and a love of books and learning. Hoping to help her as once he was helped, he assumes the role of her guardian - and tutor. As the heat in their private lessons progresses from a fledgling spark to full flame, Simon allows he has never before been so intrigued - or so tempted.
