Beautiful, young, impoverished Parson's daughter, Hermia Brooke, is
happy with her simple country life, despite being shunned by her
wealthy uncle the Earl of Millbrooke and her cousin, the spoilt and
selfish Marilyn. In a chance encounter with a raffishly handsome
gentleman, whom she decides resembles the Devil himself, she
nevertheless helps him with a stone stuck in his horse's hoof.
Rewarded with a golden guinea and a shocking kiss, Hermia finds her
world turned topsy turvy when she meets the mysterious stranger
once more at the behest of Marilyn, who is determined to trap this
'Devil' - namely the Marquis of Deverille - into marriage. Just as
Hermia's innocent heart warms to the gentler side of this
hard-bitten aristocrat and he falls under her guileless spell, the
Marquis is embroiled in a murderous plot and Hermia must fight for
his life, even as all hope of the love she dreams about for herself
seems lost.
