Eleven years ago, Cam Colburne, Duke of Dyson, witnessed his family condemned to death in a French prison due to the actions of an innocent young girl, the daughter of a French diplomat. Now, a decade later, he has the opportunity for retribution. Gabrielle de Brienne, now his prisoner at Cornwall castle, is held for ransom. Raised with an unconventional education, Gabrielle is more hoyden than lady and refuses to be intimidated by her captor's threats. However, Cam's commanding kiss awakens desire in her, and she senses tenderness beneath his pride and arrogance. At night, Gabrielle longs to understand the secrets her enigmatic captor hides. By day, she plots her escape, fearing she will lose both her heart and her will to resist him.
