Lucy Vennie suddenly faced a fate worse than death when her mother commanded her to wed her distant cousin, Charles Wynant. The very sight of Charles filled Lucy with repugnance, his touch chilled her blood, and rather than be his bride, Lucy fled into the night.
Her only protection was a jeweled talisman that hung about her delicate neck. Her one hope of safety lay in the help of Charles's notorious half-brother, who stirred Lucy's love but did not still her suspicion of his profligate ways. Lucy was caught between dread of a nightmare marriage and fear of a possibly ruinous passion. Amid a swirl of action and adventure, she had to change from a girl into a woman to make the choice of her young and imperiled life.
