Sarah collects and sells antiques, and she lives in a fantasy world of her own creation. When she's transported to another universe, she meets the man of her dreams, but he wants to teach her how to find pleasure in her "real" life.

Will Loudon is Sarah's pleasure trainer. He's also an honest-to-God English earl — the exact sort of man Sarah reads about in her forbidden books. He does such a good job of teaching her to find real pleasure, neither of them wants her to go home.
