A penniless orphan, London's most colourful dandy and a scandalous surprise that changes everything.
Ferdinand Shilton, the dandiest, most eligible bachelor of the ton, has decided it is time to abandon his carefree youth. Determined to resist the unruliness of romance however, he prepares to embark on a highly proper betrothal, trading his flamboyant fashions for a sensible, if passionless, life.
Orphan Madeleine Rose survives on the reluctant charity of her aunt, while escaping her dreary reality by secretly penning a romantic novel. But when Madeleine discovers a mysterious foundling on Ferdinand Shilton's doorstep, real life suddenly takes on the excitement of her fiction.
When an astonishing twist transforms her from a poor relation into a woman of consequence, and with her fate now unexpectedly thrown together with Ferdy's, everything Madeleine has accepted as her future is upended.
Torn between duty, honour and an undeniable attraction, can Ferdy and Madeleine summon the courage to rewrite their own destinies?
