Lady Loretta's father has arranged for her to marry the son of le Duc de Sauerdun, the dashing Fabian, Marquis de Sauerdun. Knowing that it is usual amongst the French and British aristocrats to arrange marriages for their children, Loretta is still horrified at the idea of marrying someone she has never seen or does not love. Loretta sneaks away to Paris to plead with her cousin to arrange a meeting with Fabian de Sauerdun without him knowing who she is. It was a breathtaking scheme, but Lady Loretta's only hope of escaping the marriage her father demanded was to prove to the stubborn Peer that dashing Fabian, was a notorious and unrepentant rake. And indeed he was -- but she finds him quite different to what she expected, and Fate had its own plans for a spirited English beauty and a noble Knave of Hearts!
