Synopsis
Judson Langley yearns for lands of his own. Sent to Cresswell Castle by Lady Emily Goodfife to prove her great-granddaughter is alive, Judson is torn between greed and his obligation to Lady Emily, for if he proves the girl, Arian Goodfife, is dead, he stands to inherit Cresswell. Arian Goodfife, rightful heiress of Cresswell, lives in the shadows, dirty and wretched. After her mother's suicide, her cruel stepfather spread a lie that she died in a fire. Her identity stripped away, she trusts no one. Driven to regain Cresswell, she vows to depose her stepfather. Arian realizes the peril she would face were Judson to discover her true identity.
