For years Lady Astrid Derring has survived with a skeleton staff,
borrowed gowns and cucumber sandwiches gobbled up at the galas she
attends. Never having lived down the scandal of her husband
abandoning her to avoid prosecution for his crimes, she has endured
wagging tongues and indecent propositions from noblemen who deem
her ripe for the plucking. When word reaches her that her husband
is living under an assumed identity in Scotland and betrothed to an
heiress, one course of action looms obvious. Astrid must stop that
wedding. Only her journey to Scotland is fraught with mishaps, all
which toss her in the path of Griffin Shaw - a rough, arrogant
American who time and again threatens to melt her icy reserve. When
Astrid's confrontation with her husband inadvertently results in
his death, she finds herself under suspicion and on the run in a
strange land depending on the help of the handsome American who
scandalises her with his wicked gaze and bold words.
