As heiress to a wealthy estate, Miss Charlotte Forester was courted by Mr. Marcus North, a neighboring landowner whom she had never seen and who had never seen her. As a make-believe governess named Delia Wythe, she was pursued by the odious and insistent Sir Albin Drysdale, an ungentlemanly gentleman who would not take no for an answer. As a runaway lass called Viola, she had to throw herself on the mercy of a stranger named Sebastian, who was as menacingly mysterious as he was dangerously attractive. How could she find true love in this maze of masks--and what would happen if she made a mistake...?
