Almost destitute when she inherits a fortune!

The will which sees Aurelia Croome become wealthy forbids her from marrying the new Lord Tregowan. That wouldn't be a concern if the only man to catch Aurelia's eye during her first season wasn't Maximillian Penrose — Lord Tregowan! Why is it that no one else has Max's honour, wit or tantalising good looks? The spectre of being poor again haunts her — but the thought of sacrificing passion for comfort is just as terrifying!
