When Lady Hester Theale learns Sir Gareth Ludlow is planning to propose to her, she knows she cannot accept.

Hester senses that his heart lies elsewhere - so when Sir Gareth arrives at her home with beautiful Amanda Smith in tow, it seems to confirm her worst fears.

Yet all is not as it seems - Amanda is in fact a runaway; Gareth's mission is to get her home safely. However, Amanda's startlingly lively imagination proves to be more than he had bargained for . . .
