Adeline Whiteoak would do anything to please her father, Renny. Even marry the man he chose for her. When Renny confided that his heart's desire was for a marriage between Adeline and her cousin, Philip Whiteoak, this became her desire as well. Never mind that her passion was for another. For she had loved Maitland Fitzturgis passionately, and been bitterly betrayed by him. But she would get over that. When she married, it would not be for love. Just comradeship and a mutual love for Jalna, the Whiteoak homestead...things she knew she would find with Philip.
Then Maitland Fitzturgis reappeared at Jalna, and the old passion flamed anew....
