A man in search of a courtesan, and a woman in search of a ship – will they find what they are looking for?
Lord George Northmere is tired of his lonely existence, and makes the radical decision to go against the ton and society’s rules, and seek out comfort in the arms of a courtesan.
But in all his thirty years, he has never met anyone quite like the fiery Italian Miss Florence Capria.
After travelling to England to seek her fortune leaving behind the shame of her family, she has found nothing but boredom and servanthood. Resigned to return to Italy empty handed, Florence seeks out a ship to take her home.
She is no courtesan, but she inflames Lord George’s curiosity – and his spirits – nonetheless.
After a riot forces them to take shelter in an intimate room, can Lord George ignore the growing passion Miss Capria ignites in his once cold heart? Will Florence find there is something – someone – worth staying in England for? Can a servant and a Lord find passion, even love together?
Will being lost with a lord change Florence’s destiny forever?
