When Baroness Bella Humphrey returns to England after fifteen years traveling the world with her husband, an elderly diplomat with only months to live, she has plenty of surprises in store: a new title and sizable fortune, the attentions of the marriage mart, and a budding friendship with the new King, George IV.
As she settles into her new life, this shy, not-so-young lady faces wicked agendas, society's censure, and the realities of a woman who will soon be alone in England. With the help of her meddling, but well-meaning, husband, she must choose the dashing rogue who says he loves her, his charming nemesis with the silver tongue, or the quiet country life she has always wanted.
